3. The first mover and innovator
Born in Austro-Hungary (now Croatia) in 1856, Tesla constructed his first
induction motor in 1883 and immigrated to America in 1884 - arriving in New
York with worldly goods totaling four cents, a pocket full of poems,
carefully worked calculations for a flying machine, and a head full of strange
dreams.
Tesla began working with Thomas Edison, but the two men were worlds
apart in both their science and cultures (the fact that Tesla's alternating-
current concept posed a direct threat to sales of Edison's direct-current
devices probably didn't help) and they soon went their separate ways.
Tesla invented the alternating-current generator that provides your light
and electricity, the transformer through which it is sent, and even the high
voltage coil of your picture tube. The Tesla Coil, in fact, is used in radios,
television sets, and a wide range of other electronic equipment - invented in
1891, no-one's ever come up with anything better.
Nikola Tesla (1856 - 1943)
“Nikola Tesla, the eccentric - and unbelievably
under-rated - genius known as the ‘wild man of
electronics’, was without doubt one of the greatest
minds in the history of the human race.”
4. The forgotten invention is reborn in
2007
The idea of wireless electricity has
been around since the early days of
the Tesla coil. But thanks to a group
of MIT scientists, "WiTricity" (as
these scientists call it) is now one
step closer to practical reality.
Demonstrating the ability to power a
60-watt light bulb from a power
source seven feet away without
wires might not seem like the most
impressive of feats, but the
technology behind it has massive
implications for how we live our
tech-filled, power-hungry lives.
Imagine a day when your laptop, MP3
or player are constantly charged by
power sent through the air via an

Splashpower Ltd. is a United Kingdom-
based company founded in June 2001. It
has been attempting to develop technology
for wireless charging of portable devices
such as mobile phones, personal digital
assistants, mp3 players and cameras. Their
system works through electromagnetic
induction, adding a free positioning
induction loop (at the “SplashPad") to the
conventional fix induction loop at the wall
plug (used to shift between AC and DC
currents). According to the company's
claims, rechargeable devices equipped with
a small Splash Module are placed upon a
mouse pad-sized SplashPad and have their
batteries recharged at a normal
rate.(Wikipedia)
7. Incremental or Disruptive
We believe wireless electricity incremental because it
was innovated at the end of the 1800’s and only last
year it was improved to a new technology.
We can also say that it may become disruptive
because if a strong enough product is developed it will
wipe out the demand for chargers. Therefore charging
will become universal.
What it will replace

THE over use of this system can cause damage
to our phone .We should know the mobile company policy
