WiTesla Robot, Wireless Power Transfer Robot

Wi-Tesla is a robot that has the capability to charge devices via wireless radio frequency (RF) energy. Wi-Tesla has an on-board RF generator that produces a 2.4GHz sinusoidal waveform with a high output power. This waveform is fed into a high directional antenna that would radiate the energy in the direction of the device to charge it. However, Wi-Tesla is not only limited to charging devices, but can also act as a wifi jammer.

is this carrying a magnatron ? to generate the high power 2-ghz range rf to charge things ? regards Richard

No, magnatrons are found in microwave ovens and they are powered by 120/220V AC power source. Witesla uses batteries 12V DC to generate the high power RF signal. perhaps you are confusing the phrase "microwave signal" in this video with microwave ovens. Microwave signals in physics are simply RF signals that are very high up in frequency in the GHz range. Microwave ovens and Witesla both use the same "microwave" frequency ~2.4GHz, but are technically very different.

Sorry, the batteries obviously do not generate the RF signal, but power the oscillator and high power amplifier that generate the high power RF signal.

It is surely offers a good thing. if you have plans for magnetic generator then --

- Here is my advice for you:

-- There is a review of the current Magnetic Generators in the market

--- Go to Google and search for Top Magnet Generator

---- and.. Click the first results

I was trying to clarify, thank you for your comment.

[CarpeCaelumGNV]

It most definitely does, good sir! I hope you do realize that I was defending your work in that last comment as well. I think the idea is phenomenal, and I am familiar with the science behind it. And I don't deny it would be a pretty bad idea to charge devices using a spherically-radiated microwave field; could you imagine the biological implications if you got too close? :)

Cheers!

Tesla was using very low frequency signals in the KHz range mechanically generated by motors, with transformers to step-up the voltage amplitude into the thousands of volts.

However, in my case, I use a mircowave signal in the GHz range, so in this case you would need antenna arrays to direct the signal, and high power RF amplifiers to increase the signal strength.

hope this makes sense to you.

I don't know...I'm a big fan of Tesla and this seems to be a pretty impressive piece of engineering. Though when Tesla wanted wireless power he wouldn't waste time trying to direct it :)

How dare you use Tesla's name for this piece of garbage!

WiTesla was a bit shy of the camera :). When the camera flashes it messes up the color tracking algorithm (I should have thought about that). He charges a lot better now though :).
