Electric Cars  Wirelessly Powered by Charged Roads It's an environmental dream come true.  Battery charging highways that wirelessly power electric cars as they drive along.  Imagine the additional mileage that would provide electric vehicles. Imagine how widespread use of electric cars would cut carbon foot prints globally.  Bottom-line:  electric cars would be a long distance practicality. Game Changing Innovation Research Stanford University has the project on the road.  Researchers are working on a new wireless power system embedded right beneath the surface of the road.  The wirelessly charged roads would power the electric car while it moves along the highway to its destination.  This important concept could result in widespread use of electric cars. New Wireless Charger Stanford researchers have produced a wireless charger that does something other wireless chargers don't.  The charger automatically calibrates the radio wave frequency.  That's t
