Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have demonstrated the wireless powering of a light bulb for the first time. They achieved the feat using a technique dubbed WiTricity, which employs magnetically coupled resonance between matched antennas. The MIT team now has demonstrated the concept by remotely powering a 60-watt bulb from a distance of six feet.
