EPC to display GaN-enabled wirelessly powered systems for the home and high-resolution LiDAR for AVs at CES

At the 2019 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas (8-11 January), Efficient Power Conversion Corp (EPC) of El Segundo, CA, USA – which makes enhancement-mode gallium nitride on silicon (eGaN) power field-effect transistors (FETs) for power management applications – will be demonstrating the power of eGaN technology to enhance two game-changing consumer applications – wirelessly powered systems for the home and LiDAR systems for self-driving autonomous vehicles.

In the EPC Palazzo hospitality suite at The Venetian hotel, EPC will have multiple wirelessly powered surfaces on display to demonstrate the myriad of consumer applications in the home for systems with enough power to simultaneously power a computer, power a lamp, power an alarm clock, communicate via a digital assistant, charge a cell phone and charge a wearable – all without running a single power cord to any of the devices. A wirelessly powered robotic digital assistant will also be on display.

Also shown in the suite will be multiple eGaN FET-based LiDAR systems. LiDAR technology is emerging as the leading technology to act as the ‘eyes’ for self-driving cars, and increasingly finding new applications in warehouse automation, augmented reality, and drones.
