Researchers at University of Tokyo...the “world’s first in-wheel motor system for electric vehicles” that transmits power wirelessly to run motors attached with each wheel.
If this was done in the USA, I'd say it was "click-bait" trolling for investors. Calling anything "wireless" is fashionable, and so is done to get free press releases and widespread publicity, in the hopes of luring in gullible investors.
Every electric motor by nature has "wireless" energy transfer. There are coils on the stator, coils on the rotor, and nothing between them but air. Wireless power transfer! A miracle!
No, it's not. It's the same old thing, just "spin doctored" to sound like something new.
