IKEA furniture introduced wireless device chargers

Wireless charging technology is still young, but slowly gain market share. There are two main "players" / standards here. Ones are Wireless Power Consortium, and other Power Matters Alliance. Both standards have a few big players like McDonalds, Starbucks, Xiaomi and so on.Now the Wireless Power Consortium joined announced that IKEA furniture that will have such (Qi) chargers integrated inside. Their idea is to ease congestion on the cables, while charging the devices to be neprimetlivo and viable on the table around which sit.The furniture that filled cell function in a manner that its surface has a section that sets the phone or tablet. If the device supports this charge then feel free to leave it as it would have left any other area and be a witness to wireless charging. According to IKEA, "Through research and visiting homes, we know that people hate the chaos of cables. They worry about how they can not find the charger and it will remain without power. Our innovative solutions that integrate wireless charging in domestic furniture will make life at home easier. "


IKEA still know that you are not just buying furniture from them, so they decided to start to sell these areas independent charging that you can integrate into other furniture. This technology will mostly be for charging devices that are regularly used as phones and tablets, but can be used for other things, such as rechargeable electric toothbrush or shaver.So far, there are not many devices that support wireless charging, and the struggle between two rival standards further complicates the work. However, this is really interesting solution for all those times when we ask friends charger to charge the phone because it spent in the middle of the day.
