Wireless power · Manufacturing

Power that crosses the air, efficiently.

AirCharge builds near-field wireless power transmission units. Our designs are grounded in theory and lab experiments on what actually drives efficiency: coil geometry, distance, resonance and core materials.

The problem

Cables wear out, connectors fail, and e-waste keeps growing.

Charging cables and connectors are a constant point of failure in homes, hospitals and factories, and they add to the world's fastest-growing waste stream. Wireless power can help, but only if efficiency stays high as distance grows.

62M t

of electronic waste were generated worldwide in 2022.

22.3%

of that e-waste was documented as properly collected and recycled.

How it works

Engineering every parameter that matters.

Our research separates the factors that make or break near-field wireless power.

Model

Magnetic field intensity from circular loops is calculated at different axial distances using the Biot–Savart law.

Build

Coils of different radii are wound and their field intensity and resonant frequency measured.

Extend

Curved solenoids with magnetisable cores and capacitive plates are tested to increase transfer distance.

Optimise

Findings guide the coil, core and frequency choices in each AirCharge unit.

Product

What makes AirCharge different.

Design decisions come from measured evidence, not guesswork.

Near-field technique

Efficient magnetic coupling between transmitter and receiver over short distances.

Tuned resonance

Coils matched to their measured resonant frequency for better power transfer.

Core-enhanced reach

Curved solenoids with magnetisable cores and capacitive plates to extend distance.

Built to manufacture

Simple coil-based units suited to local small-scale production.

Who it's for

Where cables get in the way.

Consumer devices

Cable-free charging for phones, wearables and accessories.

Medical & clean environments

Sealed devices with no exposed connectors to clean or replace.

Industry & IoT

Powering sensors and tools in places where connectors wear out.

The research

FAQ

Questions we hear often.

How far can AirCharge transmit power?

AirCharge uses the near-field technique, designed for short distances. Our research tests cores and capacitive plates to extend that range.

Is wireless power safe?

Near-field systems use low-frequency magnetic coupling over short distances; products will be designed to meet applicable safety standards.

What affects efficiency most?

Coil radius, distance between coils, resonant frequency and core materials, the exact parameters our research measures.

Can we co-develop a product?

Yes. We welcome partners who need a custom wireless power unit for their device.

Let's cut the cord together.

We are looking for manufacturing and product partners to bring AirCharge units to market.
