More and more unique devices appear literally every day - recently the wireless charger was considered almost fantasy, and now the wireless monitor is hardly surprising. In any case, at CeBIT, this monitor, which receives information and energy via wireless technology, did not line up a line of surprised visitors.
According to the developers, the monitor receives energy by magnetic induction - for this purpose, special devices supporting SUPA technology are built into the furniture. By the way, in this case, literally the entire table cover, on which the monitor stands, is such a device. The image is transmitted through the use of a specific data transfer technology such as wireless USB. ')
The developers at Fujitsu claim that SUPA can now transmit about 25 watts in its current "incarnation", which is quite enough to provide energy for a 22-inch display. According to eyewitnesses, the bandwidth of the wireless USB was not enough to ensure the normal display of the video, there were problems with color gamma and resolution. But for working with ordinary software, for example, office applications, wireless USB is quite enough - the image is normal.
In addition, the power of the transmitter energy is also not very great - raising the monitor by 5-7 centimeters was enough to turn off the power. But again, as a prototype, such power is quite enough. Let's hope that in a few months the company will be able to increase this distance.
Manufacturers claim that such monitors may appear on the market as early as next, in 2012, (as a reward for the strength of their spirit, those who survive a global cataclysm will receive them, yeah). The cost, of course, has not yet been announced.
