The Wireless Power Consortium (WPC) is an organization that develops and promotes standards for wireless power transfer technology. Founded in 2008, it aims to create a universal standard for charging devices without the need for cables. The most notable standard developed by the WPC is Qi, which is widely used for charging smartphones, tablets, and other electronic devices. The WPC consists of various member companies, including major technology firms and manufacturers. By collaborating on wireless charging standards, the consortium helps ensure compatibility across different devices and brands, making it easier for consumers to use wireless charging technology in their daily lives.
