Interesting breakthrough regarding 5G and energy usage. It is akin to setting up a wireless electrical grid for small gadgets and sensors.

Sounds to me like this should be a "free" power source once you get your hands on one of those cards. I would have a problem "paying" a company to harvest power they were losing anyway. Especially when you consider the health problems that will ultimately be tied to our bodies being bombarded by these radio waves everywhere we go.
Studies have already been done that these waves can be detrimental to our bodies abilities to protect itself. But, they can't be "proven" so in the name of progress and wealth, they get buried. I'm not saying that they're "dangerous" per se, but I do think certain unlucky people are more susceptible to them and suffer the consequences.
In the meantime, who needs clean, solar energy when we've got 5G? lol

One of the reasons we are able to make such progress in technology is the massive advancement in communication systems. They are vital to our progress forward.
We will see how things progress on the microwave front. Of course, maybe all this will be counterbalanced by the advancement in our disease prevention and gene editing.

Its definitely interesting. It is making use of things that already exist so it is practically free energy. I guess this will move some of the strain on the energy supplies but I wonder if adding in this harvesting feature is cost-effective. Either way I assume it will take years before we can apply it ourselves.

I wouldn't be too sure about that. That little invention doesn't look like it would too difficult to scale and mass produce to me. If you read the article, the professor talked about the fact that it wasn't cost-effective....until 5G came along. They're already building 6G in other places around the world. This could actually come to market much sooner than you think. I'd probably look for one of the giant communications company to buy out this company. That might end it right there though...

I think I missed the line. I would like to see my cell phone never having to touch a charger ever again. It probably wouldn't leave my pocket when I am not home.

interesting. it would be nice not having to charge my phone every day or being able to harvest energy to power appliances in the home. and the thingie is printable using 3D printer, suitable for mass usage. seems farfetched but we will see where things like this go in the long run
