The evolution and optimisation of wireless power transfer
Although Nikola Tesla pioneered the concept of wireless power transfer (WPT) and ushered in the wireless communication age, it was really the latest generation of smartphones that widely introduced the capability to charge a battery without a physical connection. A wide variety of industrial, medical, consumer and automotive applications are quickly applying this technology.

It's likely in the future you will be talking to robots
Automation has always lent itself to the manufacture of mass produced disposable medical devices and the bulk processing of samples - for two main reasons; initially for speed and repeatability, and then because human presence poses one of the biggest contamination risks in a clean production or processing environment.

Why you can’t afford to ignore robot batteries
One of the key reasons for using an industrial robot to automate a process is to improve product quality, through increased reliability and accuracy. But for robots to be truly reliable and safe, engineers should ensure they have the correct power solutions. Here, Michele Windsor, Global Marketing Manager at Ultralife Corporation, explains the impact poor design and integration of batteries can have on industrial robots.
