Introduction

Wi-Charge is developing a paradigm shift in wireless power systems that overcomes current limitations, allowing charging devices over the air with a range of 10 meters and available power that is 100X more than batteries. All this is done while preserving health and safety requirements.

Technology Overview

Our technology will enable the appearance of many new devices and functionalities that today are simply not possible. Imagine devices that can enjoy 100X-500X more power than they have today and still work permanently in a wireless mode.

Industry Impact

This advancement will enable a huge breakthrough in many industries and will take User Experience to the next level.

Goals and Innovations

Our goal is to develop proprietary transmitters and receivers, designed to operate for the first time at a specialized Infrared (IR) spectrum that we found to be the best one to optimize power, distance, efficiency, and, most importantly, safety.

Performance Comparison

This technology provides more than 100X better performance compared to solutions based on:

  1. Magnetic induction
  2. Radiofrequency (RF)
  3. Ultrasound beaming
