Dude that is ridiculous!

pretty cool.

Um, that article is over a year old and we have been able buy stuff with magnetic inductive charging for some time....

Hey, if you get excited by old technology that's been out forever, good for you. I hear that indoor plumbing is pretty neat too!

That is a mat that you have to lay your phone on. The article was about a much farther distance...like powering a room full of enabled devices.

the technique can power an entire room, assuming the room is filled with enabled devices. Though WiTricity uses two coils -- one powered, one not, just like eCoupled's system -- it differs radically in the following way: Soljacic's coils don't have to be close to each other to transfer energy. Instead, they depend on so-called magnetic resonance. Like acoustical resonance, which allows an opera singer to break a glass across the room by vibrating it with the correct frequency of her voice's sound waves, magnetic resonance can launch an energetic response in something far away. In this case, the response is the flow of electricity out of the receiving coil and into the device to which it's connected. The only caveat is that receiving coil must be properly "tuned" to match the powered coil, in the way that plucking a D string on any tuned piano will set all the D strings to vibrating, but leave all other notes still and silent. (This explains why Soljacic considers the machinery that create these frequencies, and the shape of the coils, top secret.)
