Introducing WigL
Smart Wireless Power

In our rapidly evolving, perpetually connected Internet of Things age, electronic devices are more prevalent than ever. And with that comes a need for constant, efficient access to power. Enter WigL, Wireless-electric Grid Local Air Networks–a new technology that will drastically reduce costs, shorten downtimes and improve the value proposition of countless goods and services by sending targeted energy through the air.

Send & Receive Power Through WiFi

Help consumers ditch cords and wires. Power their devices on the move or recharge their battery while they use their device—and that’s just scratching the surface.

Security

Wireless power distribution with the same security as our best wireless technology, allowing targeted, access-controlled power distribution.
More on Security
Just as WiFi and LTE allows smart data to be received by approved devices, WigL has the ability to be encrypted and specifically targeted toward predetermined receivers. Encryption and security can reach government-grade levels, providing high-altitude, UAV, space-based power and data distribution to military, public safety and other remote applications.

Clean Energy

Reduces infrastructure, downtime and hardware/maintenance by eliminating wires, cords and extra batteries.
More on Clean Energy
WigL technology allows for a significant reduction of the overall carbon footprint. With fewer cords and fewer batteries to produce (and ultimately discard), waste and equipment replacement is reduced. Smart energy systems would be able to efficiently regulate devices’ energy consumption to optimal levels. The ability to scale WigL provides ample opportunities for green/alternative energy to more directly reach consumers and remote applications.

Efficiency

Using the same signal that carries data (WiFi, cell phone, AC, DC, etc.), WigL tracks and sends energy on-demand.
More on Efficiency
As electronic devices continue to proliferate, the regular charging of these devices continues to be a massive need. Under the current paradigm, cords, outlets, rechargers and additional batteries are needed to satisfy the power demand. WigL provides an opportunity to “cut the cord” and shift the paradigm by having power piggyback on existing wireless data signals, reducing batteries, cords and waste. Smart software decides how much and when to use the energy, optimizing performance.

WigL in the Home

Simple adapters transform AC power outlets into wireless electricity routers, distributing smart, targeted power to a number of devices such as laptops, phones, televisions, security systems and more.

WigL everywhere

For a number of applications–from drones to ambulances to military units–essential power is made available worldwide via WigL transmitters embedded in streets, on light poles and on satellites.

How does it work?

WigL converts AC or DC Smarter Power (P/LAN) into a two-way signal via a WigL transmitter (Tx). The transmitter then routes a directed WigL signal to a known receiver. The receiver then converts the EMR or RF signal into DC to harvest the power. The received power is then stored or used to power the device. During this process, the Transmitter/Receiver (Rx) communicates smart energy by using routing tables and/or routing policies between the Tx and the Rx.

"The savings to corporations and the environment is a free byproduct of our technology that every company could benefit from. A rare win-win."

– Robert Rickard (Global Licensing Authority)

WigL is going global

For any device that has the ability to use electrical energy, WigL is the enabler for 21st Century wireless electrical solutions and the start of a trillion-dollar “Go Wireless” global initiative. Businesses worldwide have an immediate opportunity to enter this exciting new technological space by licensing the WigL Utility Patent method of combining power and signal in a directed P2P and P2MP wireless ad-hoc LAN. By building on our Utility Patent, wireless energy pioneers have the ability to synchronize, create, and sell products that manage and reduce costs associated with wirelessly powering devices, “Powered by WigL!”

Frequently Asked Questions

How does WigL work?
It works by taking normal energy from wires and converting that energy in a novel, networked way to wireless energy to specific recipients.  The networking aspect coupled with smart software takes 140 years of wireless energy knowhow and applies it to today’s real world applications.  For a more in depth discussion, feel free to take a look at our whitepaper, it should give you a good idea of how things work. http://wiglpower.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/WigL-White-Paper-Download.pdf
Can I buy this anywhere? Any products on market? Whats the cost?
We are not aware of any products on the market yet. However, we are engaging with companies that can produce this technology and encouraging those interested in our technology to request WigL at their local electronics stores.
Can I invest in WigL?
If you are an investor seeking to become a part of the WiGL family please contact Marie Wise at 408-823-3416.  If you are a corporation seeking a license to leverage the WiGL Utility patent or have any other investment/licensing questions please contact Bob Rickard at r.rickard@wiglpower.com
Do you guys actually have a working prototype?
A working prototype was submitted to the US patent office and was used to justify the utility patent.  If you are a corporate officer representing a company that is interested in developing WiGL technology, please let us know and we will be happy to arrange a demonstration and in-depth review of the capabilities.
What's the distance you can transmit power?
There is no limit to the theoretical transmission distance. Power transfer efficiency depends on many factors including frequency, antennas, the transmission medium, etc.  WiGL uses known physical limits as a starting point and introduces a software specific, networking aspect to those limits to become viable.  Is there a specific application you are interested in?
Has WigL been tested yet?
WigL is being investigated by many different agencies and sectors and is being tested all of the time. Is there a specific application you are interested in?
