Wirelessly-powered thermal comfort
Goal: Expand the use of personal comfort systems
(PCS) by reducing their need for wired connections
Approach:
Develop systems that flexibly and efficiently
transfer electrical power through magnetic
resonance coupling
• Under-desk transmitter (COP 50-70%)
• Floor mat transmitter (COP 50-80%)
Devise thermally efficient suite of PCS devices:
• Desk fan
• Heated/cooled wrist pad
• CBE heated/cooled chair
• Heated insole
Prove the effectiveness of the PCS through
human subject testing.

Challenges
Locate a company to lead the marketing of the entire system
What is the business model to sell the diverse DELTA system components in
the workplace:
• Center on wireless power transfer
• Center on workstation furniture company
• Role of sub-contractors like insole and fan manufactures
Assist lead company with relevant technical information, performance
specifications, demonstrations
