What is eCoupled Technology

eCoupled™ technology is real, INTELLIGENT wireless power. It is the next generation of power delivery worldwide. It is intelligence that moves technology beyond traditional constraints of inductive coupling and wireless power into the next realm.

By leveraging the physics of near-field inductive coupling and combining it with communications and control properties – made available by microprocessor technology – Fulton Innovation builds its advanced intelligence solutions and proprietary algorithms, which are the keys to eCoupled technology and real wireless power.

Power is a current which takes the path of least resistance when broadcast across an open space – unless it is controlled. Traditional power cords serve as physical channels for power to travel through, controlling the path of the energy. eCoupled technology eliminates the need for power cords by creating an electromagnetic conduit combined with an intelligent control system that constantly monitors the power flow to insure optimal efficiency and safety.

The Difference is Intelligence

The intelligence of eCoupled technology allows it to dynamically seek resonance and optimize power transfers at high efficiencies (greater than 98% at 120 volts/1.4 kilowatts) under multiple, varying spatial configurations and load conditions – from low-power to high-power applications. Power and data can now be efficiently transmitted to virtually any electrical device without the constraints of cords, connectors or contact points. And the solution can be either adaptive or integrated. This means that different devices from different brands requiring different power needs can share a single power source creating a truly interoperable solution at energy costs comparable to hard-wired connections.

Through its advanced identification protocol, eCoupled technology adapts its operation to match the needs of each device it powers by communicating with it in real time. It assesses and determines not only power needs but also factors in battery or device age and charging lifecycles. It provides only the necessary power needed to keep a device at peak efficiency.

Additionally, eCoupled technology authenticates any device within range. If a device or object is not immediately recognized as eCoupled compatible, the power source will not supply power to it, maintaining a safe operating environment. eCoupled technology has been validated by standards organizations in 36 countries for safety, electromagnetic compatibility (noise) and other international performance criteria.
