Sony Unveils Wireless Power Transfer Technology
Cables and wires are certainly among the issues that home theater artists have to deal with and while we have seen wireless speakers have come out, brace yourself for Sony’s new technology. The new tech is the Sony Wireless Power Transfer Technology which can send 60 watts over a distance of 20”. At that length, your setup should be covered rationally unless you have a big area where your home theater setup is situated.
This brainchild of Sony is certain to be something that people will want. The whole system operates via frequencies which may require alignment at times. Other than that, you get an orderly setup without worrying about audio and display to meet your home entertainment needs.

OK - so instead of a single skinny power wire there is a big box to receive the power and transmit it to the TV with yet ANOTHER wire??? What’s the point? Pretty stupid idea IMHO.

Sony is somewhat late to the party. There are already some players in this arena who has developed the technology and have first movers advantages. But who knows, Sony might kill the competition with its might. Some more electronics giants are likely to come up with their offering as well. It is all good for the consumers, those waiting to achieve wireless nirvana!
