Xiaomi Mi Air Charge wants to change wireless charging
At present, we know mainly wireless charging using the Qi standard, which can theoretically work at a distance of up to forty millimeters. In real use, however, the maximum distance is much smaller, usually in units of millimeters, which is convenient to the fact that when charging we do not have to remove the cases from the phone. New technology from Xiaomi promises charging at a distance of several meters.

The transmitter itself has five antennas that are used to locate the phone in the room. Then 144 antennas are used, which send a beam in millimeter waves to the phone. Xiaomi revealed that she also plans to charge this wireless charging for smart watches, bracelets and other wearable electronics in the future.
