Wireless Table Light

If you do not like the clutter of the wiring that runs from the desk lamp to the wall outlet, SUPA will probably make you happy.

If you do not like the clutter of the wiring that runs from the desk lamp to the wall outlet, SUPA will probably make you happy. SUPA - The Smart Universal Power Antenna - is a wireless light system that draws energy from printed circuit boards.

This technology was developed by the Fraunhofer Institute for Nanoscale Nanotechnology, the University of Paderborn, and four partners in the German industry.

The circuit board used in the system consists of a magnetic coil network, each coil acting as a transmitting antenna. SUPA only transmits electromagnetic radiation when a lamp is placed on it, and only passes through the surface of the contact surface.

It works by detecting the coils received in the bulb. Scientists are also developing a system that will allow the circuit and the lamp to "recognize" each other. That way, the circuit board can check whether the lights have the power to receive, and how much.

In addition, SUPA can be used for smartphones and laptops placed on the table, even it can be applied to data transmission.

According to Gizmag magazine, the first SUPA boards and lights will be available by the end of next year. The motherboard will be made in various sizes so that it can be used on many different types of boards.
