Covering the business of education and training

This would be quite cool if it were to become a reality.

Professors in the Faculty of Engineering, Yokohama National University of Japan, have been researching electromagnetic induction for use in high-power applications since about 1995.

Some applications - 

1. PCs

2. TVs

3. Vaccuum cleaners

4. lights

5. electric vehicles

6. trains

Imagine, sucking up power for your PC from whereever there is an electric source.

Problems exist however...

Electromagnetic induction will transmit power to every piece of metal it comes into contact with.

Some sort of function is needed to identify which object is allowed recharging.

Shielding is also necessary between coils and currents. 

Technicalities in the least.

It goes to show how untechnical I am. I didn't even know there were researchers thinking about such things.

This is why we have research departments in universities, no?
