Tesla reborn
Nicola Tesla would proud, and probably really jealous, of the guys at MIT that plan to commercialize the wireless transmission of electricity. If they can improve the efficiency or more importantly the range (which is currently at 7 feet), this could revolutionize many industries.
One industry in particular that I think would greatly benefit from this technology is nanotechnology and nano-robotics. One of the big downfalls of creating nano-robotics has not been the creation of tiny machines, but a lack of a way to power them. Recently a group of people came up with a way to create a microwatt of power based on the sound of the heart beating in nanomachines but the power created was still too little (for now). Sorry I can’t find the article on that one again.
Although it’s still very unlikely but maybe… just maybe, I will get to see the advent of true nanotechnology in my lifetime. Maybe.
