Xiaomi Mi Air Charge Technology - Pandora's Box is open

Xiaomi has announced a completely new technology capable of charging the battery of mobile equipment over a long distance. According to the Chinese manufacturer, Xiaomi Mi Air Charge Technology demonstrates charging smartphones and other gadgets by air at a distance of a couple of meters. Moreover, this is not just a thought that has matured in the minds of the company's technologists. And already researched and ready to launch technology.

 

Xiaomi Mi Air Charge Technology - what it is and how it works

 

Xiaomi Mi Air Charge Technology is a device that is similar in size to a medium-sized computer speaker. The unit is connected to the mains and installed in direct line of sight from the equipment that needs to be charged. Antennas are installed inside the charger. According to the manufacturer, there are 144 antennas in the experimental unit. They are designed for directional transmission of millimeter waves. To find the location of a smartphone or other gadget, a special scanner is installed for charging.

A receiver unit is installed in a smartphone or other device. It has 14 antennas that pick up waves. And there is a converter that can convert microwaves into electricity. The charge power is still at around 5 watts, but Xiaomi is already working on increasing the indicator.

 

Development Prospects for Xiaomi Mi Air Charge Technology

 

Representatives of the Chinese brand Xiaomi were in a hurry, telling the whole world that they had no competitors. Just a couple of hours after the presentation, the Motorola brand released a video demonstrating its own charger. And completely working, and not some kind of virtual.

Conceptually, Motorola's offering looks more attractive. Since the cradle acts as a receiver and a converter. Accordingly, the wireless charging device is suitable for any smartphone. And Xiaomi Mi Air Charge Technology is only compatible with gadgets that have this receiver-converter installed.

 

The idea is interesting for both brands. And there will certainly be ways of developing this technology. Smartphones have improved performance, made fast internet and rewarded with cool cameras. But the problem with the charging cables was solved in a strange way (we are talking about an induction device). Therefore, the option with air charging is very interesting.

 

Reviews on Xiaomi Mi Air Charge Technology - disadvantages

 

The whole world is fighting to preserve the ozone layer of the earth, fearing to get into direct line of sight of solar radiation. And in parallel, technologies such as Xiaomi Mi Air Charge Technology appear. Indeed, in fact, these are microwave waves. Yes, the same as in microwave, only less power. It is not a fact that all beams will be directed to the radiation receiver, and the owner of mobile equipment will not cross the segment between the source and the receiver.

And judging by the reviews on social media, there is speculation that people with built-in pacemakers will suffer from Xiaomi Mi Air Charge technology and Motorola's offerings. So far, not a single well-known doctor has commented on the situation, since the technologies have not yet gone beyond the factories. I really want it not to work, as in that joke about the uranium-coated pan. She fries food cool - without oil, and without fire ...
