US researchers have outlined a relatively simple system that could deliver power to devices such as laptop computers or MP3 players without wires. "There are so many autonomous devices such as cell phones and laptops that have emerged in the last few years," said Assistant Professor Marin Soljacic from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and one of the researchers behind the work.
Physics promises wireless power
October 1, 2009 12:00 AM Wireless power transfer is old news--more than a century ago, Nikola Tesla built magnetic coils that transmitted power without cables. But Tesla's coils also tended to expel bursts of superhot plasma.

The Future Is Cordless
A month ago I wrote a post “ World Without Wires ” about the unique material developed by Japanese scientists that can transmit electrical energy to nearby devices without the need for direct contact.
Non-Radiative Wireless Power
WiTricity
WiTricity , a portmanteau for "wireless electricity ", is a trademark of WiTricity corporation [ 1 ] referring to their devices and processes which use a form of wireless energy transfer including resonant energy transfer etc., the ability to provide electrical energy to remote objects without wires using oscillating magnetic fields. The term WiTricity was used for a project that took place at MIT , led by Prof. Marin Soljačić in 2007. [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

Cell phones, game controllers, laptop computers, mobile robots, even electric vehicles capable of re-charging themselves without ever being plugged in. Flat screen TV’s and digital picture frames that hang on the wall—without requiring a wire and plug for power.
