Intel
developed a method for the sharing of power, for example, from laptops
to mobile phones, without the need for wires between the two.
Detail information about Intel's wireless charging technology is kept tight and is expected to be announced to the public at the Intel Developer Forum (IDF) held early September 2012 in San Francisco, USA.
Intel itself has appointed Integrated Device Technology (IDT) to develop a transmitter and receiver chipset is required.
Intel said that the gadget has a future this technology could be in-charge wirelessly just by placing it within about one inch or 2.54 cm from devices such as battery charger or charger ultrabook.
"The time required for charging is approximately equal to the charge via a USB cable," said public relations manager for Intel's Dan Snyder, as quoted by The Register.
According to Intel, IDT chipset is scheduled to finish designing solutions for the utilization of this technology in early 2013. Intel will then begin to embed this technology in ultrabook, charger, and a smartphone in the middle of next year. The final product is expected to be able to the consumer in 2014.
Wireless charging is actually not a new concept. 19th-century scientist Nikolai Tesla had demonstrated that electrical power can be transmitted wirelessly over 100 years ago, but the concept has not been developed until recently.
This wireless charging technology also had Intel demonstrated at the Computex computer show in Taiwan in mid-2012. But this was the first Intel reportedly preparing for a commercial application.
Prior to this, a number of companies including Sony, Nokia, Texas Instruments, and Samsung have formed the Wireless Power Consortium (WPC) to promote technology-based wireless induction charging.
Intel, which is not a member of WPC, it is not clear whether his wireless charging technology will be available to other chip manufacturers such as Samsung ARM or who have a stronger position in the smartphone market.
