Charge Up Your Mobile Phone Without Wires

Omnidirectional Free Space Wireless Charging Now Possible

Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology | July 7, 2015

A group of researchers at KAIST has developed a wireless-power transfer (WPT) technology that allows mobile devices to be charged at any location and in any direction, even if the devices are away from the power source, just as Wi-Fi works for Internet connections. With this technology, so long as mobile users stay in a designated area where the charging is available, e.g., the Wi-Power zone, the device, without being tethered to a charger, will pick up power automatically, as needed.
