NRM: "The cable is archaic, so ways to transfer data without the use of one has been the focal point of many companies. We bet they didn't think of what Ericsson are calling 'capacitive coupling:' using your body to transfer data.
Ericsson's CEO Hans Vestberg demonstrated the technology by touching a smartphone, and upon touching a receiver which was connected up to a TV screen, an image taken on the phone immediately appeared."
The Swedish tech manufacturer Ericsson announced this Friday its decision to not attend the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2020.
Just imagine what your cellphone bill will look like.
