Fulton Innovation debuted its eCoupled Intelligent Wireless Power at last year’s CES – but this year they are ready to really put it out there with a wirelessly powered laptop.

Apparently the laptop that they will be showing at the show was developed in partnership with a leading computer industry manufacturer and will be powered through an integrated eCoupled-enabled desktop. Does that mean a laptop manufacturer is thinking about integrating the technology? According to the company, “soon, the technology will make masses of charging cords obsolete in everything from cell phones and toys to power tools, cars and kitchen appliances.”

A great idea in theory, but wireless charging has yet to work as promised or be brought to market. We are still waiting for WildCharger’s pad to come mainstream and work with multiple devices. I am interested in seeing how eCoupled “overcomes the limitations of spatial rigidity” to provide wireless power.  We will be stopping by the eCoupled booth on Tuesday and will be reporting back on the wirelessly powered laptop.
