Wipower Power Kit Designed For engineers And Devlopers

WiPower announed today the launch of a power kit designed for engineers, product developers and researchers to evaluate, design and build wireless power system for a wide variety of applications. It is basically similar to  PowerMat and Wildcharge charging mats. The main difference is that Wipower’s product comes with a full license that allows others to use the technology to develope new products. This is the reason for its high price – $4500. Wipower also provides the design documentation in a simple how-to format to make engineers life much easier.  Here is what their press release says:

The Mobile Design Kit is based on WiPower’s industry leading technology which transfers power wirelessly without the need for precise alignment between the transmitter and receiver in the x,y direction and within limits in the z direction. Thus, the technology can support “through surface” use-models such as under a desk or the other side of a wall. In addition, the technology naturally supports multiple devices all at a compelling cost point. The Kit consists of a wireless power transmitter which can support applications up to 15 Watts, a wireless power receiver which can be integrated with end product, and documentation in simple how-to format that allows engineers without deep knowledge of electromagnetic principles or power electronics to create their own wireless power products. They simply USE the technology for their product. To facilitate the task of prototyping, product design, or volume manufacturing, WiPower has assembled a qualified partner network which can help the customer if desired. Finally, WiPower provides a royalty-free license for the receiver, access to white-labeled transmitters, and standard terms and conditions to facilitate a very low barrier business model for end customers.
