GuRu Wireless, Inc., a company pioneering adaptive, long-range wireless energy transfer, announced its participation in this week’s Army Aviation Unmanned Aircraft Systems & Launched Effects Industry Day at Fort Novosel, Alabama. At the invitation-only event, GuRu Wireless will showcase its capabilities that enable the first-of-its-kind persistent intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) systems.
The demo highlights the ability of GuRu Wireless’ technology to keep a small unmanned aerial system (sUAS) in the air indefinitely, eliminating the need for a drone to land for battery change-outs or charging. The solution is enabled by the company’s scalable, fully synchronous wireless power transfer technology platform operating at 24GHz.
“Over the last several years, GuRu Wireless has solved long-lingering technical problems in wireless energy transfer technology, and today our technology can enable a drone to fly untethered from a power source indefinitely,” stated Narbeh Derhacobian, CEO of GuRu Wireless. “This capability is groundbreaking in areas including national security and defense, and we’re excited the Army has invited us to participate in this event alongside other companies providing innovative solutions for UAS.”
GuRu Wireless, Inc. is making adaptive, long-range wireless energy transfer possible to enable new applications and markets where batteries or wires aren’t feasible. Founded in 2017 by a team of scientists and engineers from Caltech, the company has successfully completed several proof-of-concept projects with leading customers in industrial, commercial and defense applications. Starting in 2024, the company embarked on a path to develop complete end-to-end purpose-built solutions for persistent flight and ISR capabilities via small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS). This is a game-changer for critical missions in defense, national security, and public safety. Enabled by our scalable, proprietary Long-range Wireless Power Beaming (LRWPB) technology platform, our solutions enable sUAS to remain in the air for extended durations, or indefinitely, eliminating the need to land for battery change-outs or charging.
