Find two devices that contain solar panels and tell me what they are.
We didn't find any solar panel items. I'm sure there were plenty there,
but with the time constraints we never actually found one.

Find 5 devices that contain sensors and tell me what they do.
We didn't find many devices with sensors, but below are two switches
that would presumably contain sensors.

I would imagine this clap on/off switch would have some
kind of audio sensor to detect clapping.
Light sensitive switch would contain photocells to detect light changes.
