Disney Research. Would this be because they are interested in wireless power for Disney Land and/or Disney World, or do Disney also R&D without a goal in mind?
Yes they have a big R&D department. IIRC they also research computer vision for example
And robotics. But I suppose that has a more direct application for Disney.
> Finally, a detailed safety analysis shows that up to 1900 watts can be transmitted to a coil receiver enabling safe and ubiquitous wireless power.
What...what happens after 1900 W?
Safety standards for long-term exposure are exceeded
I haven't quite grokked the whole paper yet, but the claimed efficiency seems fairly impressive. They are working with decent amounts of power though and I would like to see more research into biological effects.
But does my cell phone work inside this room? seems like it would be shielded heavily..
So how does this compare to the techniques used by Energous to charge devices at a distance?
This is a year old. Any movement on this technology since publication?
I don't know what any of that means, but that is quite the impressive title. It really sticks to the back of your throat.
