Samsung patent suggest the company is making a wireless TV

If you've e'er wall-mounted a Television set you know that it's a hurting to hide the dangling wires. However, fear non because Samsung might be working on making a wireless Boob tube display, co-ordinate to a recently revealed patent.

Samsung filed the patent to the World Intellectual Property Office (WIPO) in March 2018, simply information technology WIPO didn't publish the filing until February 28th, 2019. The patent mentions a few means that Samsung could ideally pull this off. All of the methods require using solenoid coils to create power when a transmitter sends an electromagnetic field to the display.

Solenoid coils are loops of wires that act as a magnet when an electric current flows through it.

And so when the receiver sends electromagnetic waves toward the display, information technology induces them and turns the electromagnetic waves into energy that information technology can use to power the screen.

One method requires the Telly to have a thicker chin or an zipper that can house the receiver and speakers that works in conjunction with a transmitter that's plugged into the wall a short altitude abroad.

The transmitter and receiver would use solenoid coils of wires to create electromagnetism to induce ability that is and so sent through the air for a curt distance.

The biggest hurdle Samsung has to overcome is how to maintain a slim design when information technology needs bulky hardware, which is why the South Korean company requires a wireless power receiver — that's attached to speakers. The company does accept plans to use this unit to besides firm speakers for the Idiot box.

Another approach has the receiver mounted behind the Telly, instead of directly below it. Either way, if Samsung tin can pull this off, it will make hanging a TV on your wall more visually appealing and you lot won't accept to run cables through your wall.

In terms of transferring media content, Samsung can employ technologies like WiGig, WirelessHD and WHDI, according to Gizmodo.

Samsung has created wacky TVs like The Frame, that'due south meant to be unobtrusive in a user'southward dwelling. It as well showed off a concept set in 2018 that could friction match its screen to the wall behind it like a chameleon.
