Japan University unveils on-road electric vehicle charging technology

The video discusses the development of rubber wheels that conduct electricity using high frequency currents, similar to electric train systems. The road acts like an overhead power line, and the wheels collect current, allowing cars to receive power while traveling on metal-embedded roads. This technology aims to reduce battery sizes in electric cars and can be applied to fixed-route transport like airport vehicles and buses.
