Wireless power at last??

AJUK said:
Not forgetting the practical economics of it all. A length of wire for a power cord literally costs fractions of pence to produce and is a very efficient and safe way of delivering power. I can't really see that ever being so elegant and simple.

Just because we can doesn't always mean we should, take the humble door key, it has been around for hundreds, if not thousands of years yet despite all of our sophisticated electronics we all still use a small piece of metal. The reason, because it is simple and cheap and performs perfectly so there is just no need for anything else.

but, cabled networks work fine, so how come nearly everyone has upgrade or will upgrade to wireless. less cables the better :). There's certain things like wall fittings where you don't wont to see signs or equipment not near a plug, I would happily a pay a premium so I don't have cables running across the room.

As fas as I know it was a massive teslacoil. The power would be transmitted by extremely high voltage effectively as lightening. That idea is frought with problems such as high risk of electrocution, very noisy, UV exposure, Ozone exposure etc. It's hardly viable.

Fair point I suppose but there is a massive difference between a relatively weak radio signal and induction to generate power for a computer or TV etc.. Our brains are fried enough with all the electromagnatism flying about the environment as it is! :eek:

It would be cool and I will admit that I would be seriously tempted to get the kit. :cool: :D

EDIT: I get it now, the principle is to use the induction as a means to charge a mobile device rather than run everything off it. In that case, ubercool!

(Note to self - read the whole ******* article rather than just look at the pictures! :o )
