Several years ago,I theorized a charging system in highways that would charge a vehicle while in motion using a series of embedded coils.
The vehicle would be topped off as it passed over the coils,no need for a full charge.The rapid surge of power could be captured by a super capacitor and fed to the battery at a rate acceptable by the battery.
Imagine never having to stop and recharge your electric vehicle or your drone.
The technology did not exist at that time,but progress has been made recently that will make this possible.
It also could make it possible eventually to deliver power to homes,with each home having a different frequency:A receiver module on the homeowner's property.
Imagine power to EVERYONE,even to the most remote locations. Small Localized wind and solar grids for a community,no poles or underground wiring.No storm interruptions of power.
Billing could be done wirelessly also by upgrading the smart meters that already exist.That should satisfy the utilities' profit concerns.
Finally,Tesla's dream of wireless power to the world may be achieved.
