Samsung and Qualcomm initiated the establishment of organization Alliance for Wireless Power (A4WP), whose purpose will be the standardization and promotion of wireless transmission. In addition to these participants, into this alliance entered Ever Win Industries, Gill Industries, Peiker Acustic, Powermat Technologies and SK Telecom companies.
The activities of this alliance will be directed to the development of tools for testing and certification of products, negotiating with regulatory agencies, as well as to create a global ecosystem of wireless power.
For example, the participants intend to promote A4WP technology in cars and furniture, and the solutions will be able to charge multiple devices and will have a lower cost compared to existing products. As a receiver of energy can serve a wide range of electronics - from headsets to Tablet PC.
According to analysts, by 2015 the devices adapted to receive power without wires will reach 100 million units.
