Wireless Mobile Charging is here!

I was expecting this would come but not this early. Mojo Mobility Inc, a Silicon Valley-based start-up firm, developed a technology that can charge multiple mobile devices at once using a piece of sheet.

Technically, it’s wireless but the more appropriate term would be non-contact. Meaning , no two wires are physically connected.

The non-contact charging system employs an electromagnetic induction method and is characterized by its thin coil areas used for transmitting and receiving electric power. It can be installed inside thin devices such as mobile phones and realize a charger as thin as a mouse pad. The system is composed of two coils, one for transmitting and the other for receiving electric power.

It’s not really the wireless, long-distance, over-the-air charging that I was thinking but it still works. At least, you don’t have to struggle with wall sockets with this one. More about the story here.
