Xiaomi has today unveiled their “Mi Air Charge Technology,” which is capable of wirelessly charging devices from across a room with 5W of power.
Mi Air Charge Technology offers a “true wireless charging” solution, without cables or stand-alone. Machines go at speeds with 5W of power, using advanced spatial positioning and beamforming energy transmission.
Xiaomi has developed a remote pillow unit with five-level intervention antennas, which can accurately detect smartphone positioning. A level control array with 144 antennas then transmits waves across a millimeter directly to the phone through a beam carrier.
For smartphones, Xiaomi has developed a compatible miniaturized antenna series with “beacon antenna” and “receive antenna series.” The beacon antenna transmits position information with low power, while the receiving antenna range uses 14 antennas to convert the millimeter wave signal transmitted by the charging mast into energy. electricity through a rectification circuit.
The remote charge technology is capable of cutting multiple devices within a radius of several meters, with each machine capable of receiving 5W of power. Xiaomi also notes that physical items placed between the shipping pile and the device will not reduce cost effectiveness.
Xiaomi says it looks to expand the technology to smartwatches, wristbands, and other wearables, as well as smart home speakers, desk lamps, and more in the future. It’s not clear how close Xiaomi has been in bringing its Mi Air Charge Technology and charging to the consumer market, but today’s publication may suggest that it sooner rather than later.
The news indicates that wireless charging technology is advancing within the industry. Several years ago, it was rumored that Apple was partnering with Energous to deliver its own remote wireless cost solution. It is still believed that Apple is exploring new technologies for wireless charging, and with the advent of MagSafe on iPhone 12 models, it’s clear that the company is interested in new ways to power devices.
