Amazing if its possible than is it possibel it doing without an optical cable using direct laser beam ? if yes! a revolution of wireless power tranmission is at the door step! Anyone would like to discuss this :salute:... Title: Re: A quadrotor based "InvisiTower" Post by: anwar on July 01, 2011, 01:44:07 PM It is just a design content entry... at this stage at least :)

It can remain aloft and stationary indefinitely! COOL! :bow: Title: Re: A quadrotor based "InvisiTower" Post by: Swapnil on July 01, 2011, 04:36:13 PM Just found a video of 'laser power beaming technology' being demonstrated (on a micro-helicopter). The video is presented by Tom Nugent, president of LaserMotive.
