鈥渁esthetically pleasing鈥. One solution it鈥檚 patenting is to hide them inside
houses in a fibreglass box fitted to a window or air vent (GB 2359195). The box
is impregnated with graphite particles and lined with aluminium foil to stop
signals leaking out鈥攅xcept through a port directed outwards out into the
neighbourhood. This keeps the radiation emitted inside the house down, Orange
says.
