Some of the best innovations often come out of the work and research done at universities. Such is the case with a recent demonstration at a university that aims to convert radio frequencies into usable electricity. Let’s take a look. The University of Kashmir recently demonstrated new wireless energy harvesting technology, which offers an innovative way to power devices and charge batteries without the need for physical connections—and it aims to solve an age-old problem. In the past, methods using lasers, microwaves, or infrared light have often come with limitations, such as requiring a direct line of sight between transmitter…
