Aira Sets a New Standard for Wireless Charging with FreePower™

CHANDLER, Ariz., Aug. 27, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Aira Inc. is excited to announce the arrival of its game-changing FreePower™ wireless charging technology, with the shipping of Nomad Goods' Base Station Pro.

Aira is setting a new standard for wireless charging with FreePower™, an elegant hardware and software solution that offers complete freedom of placement across surfaces. Designed and engineered in-house from the ground up, FreePower™ is a flexible platform that can accommodate different surface sizes and any number of devices. As a technology supplier, Aira is partnering with companies that want to integrate free position wireless charging into their products.

FreePower™ is a fundamentally new approach to wireless power, equipped with more than 30 patent assets for its groundbreaking hardware, software, and magnetics. Unlike traditional wireless chargers, which require devices to be precisely aligned with a small hot spot, FreePower™ features full surface charging from corner to corner. As Qi-enabled devices are placed across the surface, precise power is delivered and intelligently managed to optimize performance.

"Wireless charging has yet to deliver on its promise of convenience because of the small hot spot limitation," said Jake Slatnick, co-founder & CEO of Aira. "We made a decision early on to do something radically different and solve the core issues holding wireless power back. We built FreePower to be an elegant solution that sets the new standard for wireless power for years to come."

FreePower™ is poised to usher in a new era of convenience in every corner of our lives. It can transform desks into surfaces that charge your laptop, keyboard, and mouse while you work. It can recharge all of your devices as they rest on your nightstand overnight. It can turn your car's center console into a reliable charging station, unlike traditional chargers that disconnect when your phone shifts during the drive. It can provide seamless power throughout your daily life in restaurants, cafes, and airports, with surfaces that effortlessly charge all of your devices.

"The biggest Shark Tank successes come from innovators with products that solve the problems we face in our daily lives," added Robert Herjavec. "Aira's technology addresses the fundamental shortcomings of today's wireless chargers in a sleek, scalable form factor. The possibilities are essentially endless."

"FreePower has the potential to transform industries," said Kevin O'Leary.
