Change in Latitude

This week Dell launched its latest laptop with something no other PC has — eCoupled wireless charging capabilities.

The Latitude Z is the first laptop to use the proprietary technology developed and marketed by Fulton Innovation, part of the Amway family of companies. It’s a change of attitude for the computer maker that’ll create a change in Latitude for laptop owners.

But that’s not all. Fulton also this week issued a white paper and video to help consumers understand how wireless power works and the ways it can simplify their lives. 

Powerful stuff.

BMW, Samsung, Bosch, Philips, TI, Sony, Fulton Innovation… Fulton Innovation?

Part of the Amway family, Fulton Innovation keeps some pretty good company in a recent issue of The Economist. The story follows on the heels of Fulton Innovation’s much anticipated showing of its eCoupled technology at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show.

Logos for Fulton Innovation and eCoupledAlso mentioned in the article is Splashpower, a British concern acquired last year by Fulton Innovation. Fulton director Bret Lewis is quoted as saying that he sees 2009 as “the year for wireless” charging technology. In response, The Economist believes that is it simply a matter of time before wireless charging hits the mainstream.
