Disney has created a concept room for wireless charging phones. It's a cool idea but a bit ambitious for anything soon

https://www.extremetech.com/extreme/244809-disney-creates-room-can-wirelessly-charge-hundreds-devices

The researchers built a full-scale room to demonstrate the technology. The walls, floor, and ceiling are all made of aluminum panels. In the middle of the room is a copper pole that allows current to loop through the room’s structure 1.3 million times per second. A series of capacitors in the central pole make sure the electric field is confined so it doesn’t interfere with anything in the room. That’s why objects and people can walk around in the volumetric power room without harm. It meets all federal safety guidelines (mostly). Outside the room is a generator and power amplifier to pipe power into the ring of capacitors.

imho, people should leave their phones at the hotels. "the happiest place on earth" shouldnt be inturrupted by cellphones usage. but i guess this is a sign of the techie times. one time we were at an amusement park and left all our devices at hotel, np

When I went to Disney, we split up from our daughter and her friend and our phones were a great way to try to reconnect through all the parks.

Right. And it's not just one park, but multiple parks within the park. Before we had cell phones 12 years ago we took our walkie talkies in case we got split up but their coverage was limited.
