CES 2009: Fulton Innovation Brings Wireless Power to the Masses
Fulton Innovation got their start by making water purification systems that included wireless power. Now they are involved with multiple companies--including Motorola, Energizer, and Bosch--to develop a wide variety of wireless power solutions that will let consumers cut the ever-present electrical cord. I had a chance to stop by their booth, and was impressed by the scalability and downright convenience of their systems.
In a nutshell, Fulton Innovation's eCoupled system uses an electromagnetic charging station to provide power to devices with compatible batteries or capacitors. The station can be integrated directly into furniture, countertops, and in-car surfaces--providing wireless power ranging from milliwatts to thousands of Watts with 98% efficiency. Among the products demonstrated were a slew of mobile phones, a pot that boiled water through a trivet resting on a kitchen counter, a 1,400 Watt blender, and power tools with compatible batteries that charge while the whole unit was resting in a case on a shelf inside of a work van. Very impressive stuff. It's easy to imagine that this is how all of our devices will recharge in a few years.
