Earlier this year, Xiaomishowed off a concept videofor charging a phone over the air in a room.
Now, Motorola has also announced that exploring long-distance wireless charging solutions for its future generations of devices.
The phone maker is partnering withGuRu wireless,a company thats working on over-the-air charging solutions for multiple devices.
The US-based firm claims to have a proprietary charging tech that uses millimeter-wave (mmWave) integrated circuits.
GuRu said that first-gen chargers with this tech will be able to charge your phone between 5W to 10W.
At the moment, Motorola hasnt detailed out its plan to include such charging tech in its devices.
But we can expect these two companies to show off a concept at upcoming trade shows.
It’s free, every week, in your inbox.
And you might not be able to get over-the-air charging through another companys charger at the beginning.
Plus,there are regulatory hurdles to safely transferringpower over the air.
So dont get excited just yet.
That’s one heck of a mixed bag.
