As of June 2016 the number of audio-visual devices connected to the internet was inching toward 13 billion according to a report by IHS Inc. (NYSE: IHS). Now that figure must have come about by how many can be practically counted because they are connected. Bringing this into context, there are billions more that are not connected. More than half of all these devices are mobile, which means they run on some form of battery, and batteries need charging.

If you look around, you will most likely see at least two of such devices in sight. This brings to question how we keep these devices charged! There have been promise of such technologies around. From long lasting battery to air charging!

Another organisation, Energous, think they have cracked it one more time. Meet the the rightly named Wattup!

If Energous gets their way, cable chargers will be a thing of the past and you would never be worried about your devices running out of power!

We at thecomputerpotato can’t wait for this to be reality! It will most definitely change the world of mobile devices!
