Nikola Tesla proposed wireless power transmission in 1899 using a radiative method that wasted much of the power. In 2007, six MIT scientists were able to transmit power to a light bulb within 2 meters at 9.9 MHz using a nonradiative mutual induction method. Witricity works through mutual induction and has applications for consumer electronics, industries, transportation, military uses, and medical devices.

AS IT IS IN RADIATIVE
MODE,MOST OF THE
POWER WAS WASTED AND
HAS LESS EFFICIENCY.
IN 2007,6 MIT SCIENTISTS
TRANSMIT POWER TO A

NONRADIATIVE.
