Disney Research has built a room that uses a new type of free-roaming wireless charging technology which is capable of powering three lamps, a fan, an RC car, and a smartphone at the same time.
Disney Research has created a prototype of a room which is capable of wirelessly providing power to phones and household devices.
The room is capable of simultaneously powering several devices including a smartphone, lamps, a fan, and an RC car. These can be powered regardless of where they are located inside the room. This development represents a significant step forward in wireless power delivery technologies, which usually require close proximity to wireless charging pads in order to transfer power. Depending on where an object is in the room, the researchers estimate efficiency levels to be between 40 and 95 percent.
