Intel Cuts The Power: Demonstrates Wireless Juice
Anyone that has travelled with a bagful of chargers - most of us - will be interested to hear that Intel has just demonstrated wireless power at its IDF event. It may look like one of those planetary educational tools but it’s actually two metal arrays connected to a power amplifier. The arrays resonate at a particular frequency to create an energy link which transmits power between them. Based on principles proposed by MIT physicists, Intel’s Wireless Resonant Energy Link (WREL) technology was shown powering a 60W bulb without wires or plugs. It may be small potatoes just now but it points to a future when you can walk into an airport or anywhere else and use wireless power to use and charge your mobile devices. Check out Intel’s CTO, Justin Rattner, giving a chat and demo of ‘no more wires’ below.-Martin Lynch intel news energy
