I've never seen this anywhere but in the UK. I guess it works there because of relatively the mild winters? Michigan on the other side, has a continental climate.

Sorry, what does IC and PIP mean in this context?
Yes, Intel tried to introduce Rezence a couple of years back. Don't know why it never happened, perhaps QI was good enough? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rezence_(wireless_charging_s...

What happened to wireless charging standard Rezence?

In 2015 Rezence was hyped as a promising new wireless charging standard, backed by Intel, Qualcomm, and Samsung. Instead of using induction as in Qi, Rezence was based on the principles of magnetic resonance, which could provide up to 50W of power at distances up to 5 centimeters. So why did the standard never take off?

Does anyone know what happened to Intel's once promised wireless power standard Rezence? It would use magnetic resonance instead of magnetic induction.
