The power cord is generally regarded as “the final cord” that needs to be eliminated in order to get a true wireless user experience. As Fadi Malas said in the previous blog post, why not apply this in your kitchen?
In March 2013, the Wireless Power Consortium (WPC) from which we have already heard about, has established a Work Group to develop specifications for cordless kitchen appliances.
Here is the link to a PDF where they explain a little bit the concept and benefits.
Enjoy!

Let's Cut the Cord!
We learned a lot about wireless
power charging for mobile phones, electric cars and buses. Wireless power is
being used in other applications…and surprisingly it could be applied to our
own kitchens! Wireless kitchen appliances are used in the kitchen with no need
for the power cord anymore! So how does this work?!
The cooking appliances may be used on countertops or induction cooktops that have inductive power sources integrated. This technology will facilitate cooking; give more space, and
easier ways to clean the appliances in kitchens. Also, the induction and power
could be applied to kitchen and dining tables. This way food and drinks will
stay warm.
The application of wireless power
is witnessing no limitations from mobile phones, cars, and now our kitchens.
This technology will promote ease for mobility, functionality and better
safety.
