I remember being in my digital communications class when my prof introduced the wireless power concept. Of course, it was an attempt to keep everyone awake since the lecture has been going on and on for hours (minutes actually, but you know students…). Then again, that’s how he is — he tends to digress until it is rather difficult to go back to the main topic at hand.

Anyway, I found this article detailing the wireless power concept (WiTricity) my professor was telling us about. Pretty amazing, if you ask me, although I seriously hope there wouldn’t be any severe side effects and trade-offs with the rise of this new technology. It wouldn’t be much of a surprise when the whole world would be wireless ten to twenty years from now.

To the team of WiTricity, I salute you!
