With the increase in rugged as well as outdoor devices; despite being very different areas of interest- \u201ctechnology and nature\u201d seem to have finally found a way to be together. These days we can see the advent of many such portable devices such as -waterproof cameras, rugged Bluetooth speakers, compact solar solutions to keep the technology powered while out in nature and so on. Though there are many individuals who may still be averse to the idea of using technology in nature, especially those who want to get away from it all; there are also many increasing number of individuals who want to enjoy the beauty of nature along with the convenience of technology<\/a>.
