By eliminating the constraints of traditional wired systems, our technology provides unprecedented design freedom, enhanced reliability, and streamlined manufacturing capabilities.
Wired systems decrease manufacturing flexibility – wires must be manually connected on the production line.
Wireless power delivery completely avoids manual assembly steps, reducing labour and overhead costs dramatically and increasing efficiency.
Wires limit creative freedom – designers are forced to implement solutions to problems that wires present, such as routing them through areas where space is limited.
Wireless power gives product designers the freedom to create aesthetically pleasing designs without limitations.
Traditional wired systems are prone to wear, with water ingress and corrosion leading to connector failures over time.
Wireless power systems are much more reliable for these use cases.
Most modern vehicles have a radar embedded inside the front bumper or grill to provide additional safety features such as forward collision avoidance and radar-assisted cruise control. During the winter, the build up of ice and snow can attenuate the radar’s signal. Typically, a wired heating element is used to prevent this, but doing so imposes significant design restrictions, requires manual labour, and decreases reliability.
Solace has developed a wireless surface heating solution that meets all of the performance characteristics of a wired system without any of its flaws.
Designing powered seats in a vehicle such as a van often requires long, coiled cables installed underneath the floor of the car that allows the seat to move forward and backwards across the length of the rail. This can cause reliability issues over time as the cables are repeatedly strained.
Using wireless technology, Solace can safely and efficiently send power along the rail of the seat to increase reliability, save space, and enable automation in manufacturing facilities.
By removing traditional connectors found throughout doors, mirrors, and other automotive parts, our technology improves design flexibility and reliability. Wireless power connectors are fully sealed and are a robust alternative for powering moving car components.
Solace has implemented our wireless power and data technology in tandem with Gentex at CES 2025, featuring a hidden camera that receives power and data wirelessly, delivering a low-latency video feed through clear acrylic.
Using Solace’s wireless technology to power it, Solace can enable automotive windows to dim with the wireless coil moving in sync as the windows move up and down. With this wireless power solution, there is no need to secure a long, rattling cable harness inside the door, improving the vehicle's overall reliability by eliminating potential cable-related wear and failure points.
