New wireless charging technology can charge up to 40 devices at once

April 19, 2014

Charging technology has developed a lot over the past few years, especially wireless charging technology. In fact, new wireless charging technology developed at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology that can charge a whopping 40 phones at once from up to 5 meters away.

The system is called the Dipole Coil Resonant System, and while it’s still in prototype phase, it could make charging cables a thing of the past. It essentially uses 2 long magnetic coils to power devices through inductive charging. Not only could it charge your mobile devices, but it could also power things like your TV.

The technology is still a little expensive for consumer use, but the researchers behind it think it could be used soon for public spaces to offer charging, just like there are currently WiFi hotspots. Eventually though, it could be used to create completely wireless offices and homes.
