Technology helps to charge the car through the tire

In an effort to reduce the dependence on gasoline, Japanese scientists have successfully researched and tested the method of helping the car recharge while running on concrete surfaces.

This technology allows vehicles to recharge themselves while on the move, thanks to a special type of vehicle that can charge the car when it comes to road contact. The experiment conducted at Toyohashi University of Technology showed that the 50-60 watt current was transmitted from the generator (white base) through a concrete block of about 15 cm (simulating vehicle and surface contact). line) and then into the two tires, brighten the light bulb is placed in the middle of the two-wheel axis.

This result shows that the ideas of scientists are very feasible. Although the power needed to deliver a vehicle is 100 times larger, the research team's lead researcher, Takashi Ohir, says it is not technically a problem. He also said that the efficiency of power transmission through concrete can reach 80-90% or higher.

Many technology companies are also researching similar charging technologies, for example, Toyota is targeting a charging system through sheet metal pressed on the road.
