Powercast is driving a revolution in wireless power

Powercast Corporation is a technology company that has emerged as the Industry leader in wireless power. There are five attributes of this technology that provide significant feature, function, cost and safety benefits over time. Powercast has developed and patented the “power delivery system” that harvests radio frequency (RF) energy and efficiently converts it into useable DC power. While this concept has been promised for more than 100 years, Powercast is the first company to make it commercially viable. Any power efficient device or devices that requires AC/DC power for operation can benefit from this technology platform:

• By powering a low wattage device with direct current.
• By recharging the batteries which supply power.
• By using the power system for event specific poweringBy providing power for passive / active wireless sensor and RFID devices.
• By providing power in an actual network, similar to a RF data communications network.

Powercast Corporation is a company located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania within the Western Pennsylvania Regional Industrial Development Corporation campus. Interestingly, this is adjacent to the research and development HUB comprised of the University of Pittsburgh, Carnegie Mellon University and other fine research institutions.  

Products

Powercast has developed a transmitter module, called a Powercaster™ and a receiver module called the Powerharvester™. Both are ingredients that we expect will be embedded in hundreds of future products. So, while Powercast does not sell a packaged product that you will be able to buy off the shelf, we do provide the modules to OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers). The patented Powercast platform makes it possible to design and manufacture revolutionary products that are charged - or even powered directly - without wires.
