This tech has been around for a while. Your air conditioner makes water out of thin air.

As a kid when I was a boy scout they taught us how to set up something similar using your poncho & a hole to collect water overnight in survival situations. This is just an oversized version of that old technique.

Isn’t this what the Boy Scouts teach when in survival training with a piece of plastic, four sticks and small rock? And this guy gets his PhD for it? Whoa!
