The end of the plug? Scientists invent wireless device that beams electricity
through your home.
The team from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, who call their invention
'WiTricity', believe it could change the way we use electricity and do away with
the tangle of cables, plugs and chargers that clutter modern homes.
It could also allow the use of laptops and mobile phones without batteries.

" You may one day be able to recharge your laptop or mobile phone without having
to plug it into the wall, says a US physicist.
Prof Soljacic says he has found a way of transmitting energy so that only the
devices that it is recharging will pick it up, so it will not affect humans.
Instead of using traditional radiation, he wants to use the part of the
electromagnetic field that is 'non-radiative'.
He says devices can be tuned to the frequency of this field and thus act as a
sink for all the energy the transmitter gives out. "
