A brilliant new invention has been demonstrated at the TED Global conference in Oxford. 

“Witricity” provides a system to wirelessly transmit electricity! Same example uses include:

• Wirelessly charge you mobile phone when your at home or in the office
• Mount a flat panel TV without having to hide power cables
• Re-charge your hybrid electric car without plugging it in

Best of all, they say the technology should be available in the next year  to 1.5 years!
