Energy transmitted by laser in historic power beaming demonstration
During a threedaylong tech demonstration at the David Taylor Model Basin at the Naval Surface Warfare Center in Bethesda, Maryland, attendees gathered to see a longrange, freespace power beaming system. Attendees this day, May 23, could see the system itselfthe two 13foothigh towers, one a 2kilowatt laser transmitter, the other a receiver of specially designed photovoltaics.
