Fulton Innovation was a founding member of the Wireless Power Consortium and were recently at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas to show off their latest, no pun intended, innovations. They are working to unify a standard for wireless charging of all of your devices from phones to tablets and more. The standard is called Qi (pronounced “Chi”) and it will bring together all of the makers of your favorite mobile devices and allow them all to charge wirelessly in a standards-based way. Users will be able to charge a smartphone simply by sitting it on a table, or in many other ways.
Fulton Innovation is looking at a lot more than just phones and tablets though. They are looking at entering your kitchen with such things as wireless blenders that will charge right on your countertop, induction ranges, even charging your electric car by simply parking it in a particular space.
All of this futuristic sounding technology has been developed and was on display at CES. Now Fulton Innovation is working with third-party manufacturers to get their technology built and out into the marketplace. You can visit them online to find out more and you will definitely want to watch the video below.
