Tesla charged up at CES 2011
If you thought that wireless charging was just a small scale operation, and only suitable for pocket-sized devices like your smartphone, then think again because over in Vegas at CES 2011 Pocket-lint witnessed a demo of a car being charged without wires.
The technology used to charge this Tesla Roadster was by Fulton Innovation, a subsidiary of the Alticor Corporation.
"Fulton has been working with partners in various industries to bring eCoupled technology to market and move beyond charging low-powered devices without cables", read an official statement from the company.
It used the electric vehicle to showcase eCoupled’s advanced wireless charging capabilities for large and high-powered devices.
The car is able to charged without wires simply by parking over an eCoupled-enabled pad that could be installed into your garage. There's also an accompanying iPhone app that gives you details of the battery charging progress.
