Wireless Power Transmission is Here

Modern researchers try to bring to life the idea of a scientist who lived more than a hundred years ago. We are talking about Nikola Tesla. In 1891, the inventor developed the Tesla coil, a resonant transformer that transmits electricity without wires, but only over short distances.
Due to its limited capacity, it was not used. However, the scientist was not going to give up and created a project for a power plant that could cope with high-voltage wireless power transmission. Tesla tried to use it to transmit messages wirelessly over long distances. Unfortunately, the JP Morgan investor refused to provide additional funds for the tests, and, in 1906, the project was canceled and closed. Tesla’s dream was to place huge towers around the world that could transmit power wirelessly to any place, powering houses, enterprises, industrial facilities, and even giant electric ships in the ocean. Tesla died, unable to fully realize his idea of wireless electricity, but his followers continued the work of an outstanding scientist. In 1964, microwave electronics expert William C. Brown, first tested a helicopter model capable of receiving and using microwave beam energy as the direct current through an antenna array consisting of half-wave dipoles with highly efficient Schottky diodes.

all of these came from 1 person tesla. and he died alone because of competition. and now we just use it. i hope people would honor him, that he was the one who made everything possible today

Some of these responses remind me of the old adage that; “Some people have just enough knowledge to think they are right, but not enough to know when they’re wrong.”

No matter if this future tech is an application of tesla's devices, the concept came from him. He was a visionary. This is the future of electricity transmissions. Safety is paramount. More research needed on safety.

It's been here since Tesla discovered it! The big corporations could not let it be because they did not figure out a way to charge money for it.

[chaorrottai]

the trick is that we do wireles power based on electromagnetic radiation propogating out from the transmitter as a radio bubble, tesla coils aren't transmitting power like that, they aren't using induction, they are using resonance coupling to turn the ground into the neutral and the air into the hot wire.

a true tesla coild transmitter reciever setup uses electromagnetic to generate the voltage and accomplish resonance, but the actual power transfer from transmitter to reciever is supposed to utilise atmospheric capacitance and transfer power electrostatically instead of electromagnetically.

it makes a big difference, electrostatic resonant charge transfer is orders of magnitude less leaky than emr based power transfer.

Tesla should have statues everywhere he wants just a genius he was a kind man.

"Short distances" apparently means "an entire town". He had functional electricity for his entire town off this technology.

This process is NOT lossless! We would waste way more energy than we used. The second law of thermodynamics is in play and they are ignoring it.

[geofferyromany]

I can see the adaption for the developing world. Power stations transmit to substations and then on individual poles to the 3 phase transformers. The only difference is that there are no wires running overhead nor underground. After an earthquake or hurricane or snowstorm or tsunami electricoty can be restored very quickly.

"Has to convince people that radiation will not harm them." Far too many people think that all radiation is the same. This is common, but bizarre considering that visible light is also radiation.

[genehasenbuhler]

It's ALWAYS been here, your just now figuring out what the ancients knew long ago!

[wayneschenet]

Tesla’s idea of transmitting high power around the earth would not work. RF or microwave energy transmission of energy is very limited. Microwave transmission can send larger amounts of power in a directed beam.
Wireless Power transmission to power millions of homes is unfeasible.

Microwave Transmitters for Wireless Electricity. I have to ask. Isn't that a Cancer risk? My Dad got Brain Cancer working with Waveguide Technology.

ANY FREQUENCY THAT INTERFERES WITH THE FREQUENCY OF CARBON LIFE FORMS ARE DESTRUCTIVE..EVEN THE NON IONIZATING TYPE

[vkaitakirwa]

Tesla worked for all humanity.Scientists today work for money. The more they can squeeze out of us the better.

[braaitongs]

NT did not intend to send the power through the air but the earth. As it is a colossal reservoir of power. Also sending power using transverse electromagnetic waves will never really catch on. It is too lossy . Longitudinal dielectric rarefactions is what needs to be used.

So sad how our government treated him. Just because Edison feared him

[gueropalma]

I'm so sick of cords all over my damn house I'm about to create the infrastructure myself.

[guyp]

The oil companies will never let this happen

[haroldlamble]

Looks like a sci-fi movie of lightning bolts flying everywhere.
