The big thing was the idea of building this into standard materials, like a countertop area, so you could just slide an appliance on to an area and it would power it on, slide it off that area and it would power off.<br><br>The Wireless power was even more amazing. They showed a power coil that would oscillate behind a picture, and a power receiver on the other end would oscillate back, and the two waves would cause friction, and thereby creating power. It was only good over a 5-7 foot range, but imagine getting rid of all the cables behind the TV with something like that.
