The use of technology in the home – namely the kitchen - is growing quickly and impacting the way home builders and designers think about this important home centerpiece.
The Wireless Power Consortium’s Ki Cordless Kitchen standard will only build upon this trend and elevate the way architects and builders think. This innovative standard will allow versatile cooktops to wirelessly deliver up to 2,200 watts of power to smart cordless kitchen appliances, allowing them to operate without the clutter of cords! These small appliances, such as rice cookers, toasters, blenders, coffee makers, air fryers and more, are powered by simply placing them over power transmitters installed in induction-enabled cooktops or hidden underneath non-metal countertop surfaces, cooktops or tables. The appliances are then powered by inductive power transfer with no unsightly cords getting in the way!
With the Ki Cordless Kitchen, a single countertop surface can be used for everything from food prep to cooking to eating, without compromising the sleek and clean look that so many consumers look for in today’s kitchens. They also provide a new path to bring intelligence into the kitchen!
Key benefits of a Ki Cordless Kitchen:
1. Space efficiency. Ki hidden undercounter transmitters, besides being out of sight, won’t heat your counter material so food preparation, cooking and cleaning can all take place on the same surface. Cooking and preparing foods with Ki-enabled appliances will offer unprecedented flexibility to use kitchen space as needed—great for small kitchens.
2. Smart. Two-way communication between the appliance and power transmitter adds intelligent features.
3. Convenience. Whether you’re using a Ki-enabled induction cooktop or a hidden transmitter, Ki makes cooking more convenient. Once installed, operating enabled appliances is as simple as placing them above an installed transmitter and turning them on. Hidden transmitters are compatible with all non-metal counter or tabletop materials.
4. Modern design. By getting rid of unsightly cords, the Ki Cordless Kitchen standard allows for a sleek, ultra-modern kitchen, and makes kitchens safer for you and your family.
A new, must-have standard for homes in the coming years
The Wireless Power Consortium has been working with member companies over the past several years to develop this wireless power standard for kitchens. And, with standardization comes confidence in interoperability. In other words, any product developed according to this standard will be compatible with any other product also developed on the standard, regardless of brand.
Just as the microwave once changed the way consumers acted in the kitchen, the Ki Cordless Kitchen will also change consumers – but in a MUCH bigger (and smarter) way.
