Tech News : Where next for wireless charging?

[Anonymous]

Headline : Where next for wireless charging?

Excerpt from Link "“WiFi for electricity” firm uBeam is back in the headlines with the most convincing demonstration of its long range cable-free chargers to date.

It's not the only one that's been making unusual waveforms in the electromagnetic ether either: there have been some other big things happening in the little world of wireless power transfer over the last month. So is plugless power about to go mainstream?"

My thoughts :

Wireless Charging possibly brought to the next level.

Exciting times ahead.

Am I the only one that doesn't really see the advantage of wireless charging?

No more carrying around extra batteries , juice pack cases or chargers.

No having to find a plug or USB port.

I'm up for it

Technology continues with rapidity.

It used to be years before technology advanced, now it seems there is something new every other week. I'm sometimes in awe when I think back to the 60s and 70s when life seemed so simple. Not that I don't embrace, use and enjoy the technical age we find ourselves in.

Really? So what do you use when you're out and about and miles from your wireless dock?

Obviously I have to use one of the other current options !

So the only real difference at the moment, and probably for a long time to come, is one less cable at home. Meh

It's what suits the individuals wants and needs and usage.
