LaserMotive can provide laser power links for a variety of applications.  Output power levels can currently range from a few watts up to many kilowatts, and the upper power range can be expanded arbitrarily high.  The power link can reach over ranges from across the room up to many kilometers away.  Our initial products focus on the following applications.

UAV Power Links

Users of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have a strong desire to improve their endurance.  LaserMotive’s UAV Power Link is an enabling technology, freeing UAVs from any need to recharge their batteries.

“Eternal” UAVs can act as low-cost, low-altitude geostationary satellites, providing surveillance and communications continuously over a large area, as shown in the image at right.

When UAVs need to fly beyond even the range of the power link, they can use on-board storage to operate and then fly within range of a power link to recharge in flight.

Point-to-Point Power Links

Sensors and other electronics require a constant supply of energy, but it can be expensive or impractical to run electrical wiring to their location.  LaserMotive’s Point-to-Point (P2P) Power Link is a ground-based version of our long-range laser power link technology, providing power to remote devices without the need for wires.

Perimeter sensors for military bases or field units can benefit from the P2P Power Link, by eliminating the need to run expensive copper wires over long distances or to send personnel out into dangerous areas to swap batteries.

Field units or temporary bases can receive electrical power via the P2P Power Link, eliminating the need to truck fuel through dangerous locations.

Communication relay towers can be deployed on remote mountaintops and powered by the P2P Power Link without needing a logistically difficult power supply line.
