Prime Movr announced the launch of its Laser Power Transmission technology that converts optical energy from laser beams into usable electrical energy, enabling small-scale laser power beaming for wireless device operation.
The newly launched technology by Prime Movr allows devices to be powered without physical wires, opening pathways for untethered, long-range applications with improved efficiency.
Based in Kashmir, with team members across India, Egypt, and the US, Prime Movr is positioning itself within the growing global focus on laser power transmission technologies.
The company’s announcement comes amid increasing visibility of large-scale laser power transfer initiatives worldwide.

Prime Movr Advances Wireless Energy Transfer Through Laser Power Transmission
Organisations such as the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), Star Catcher Industries, and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries have recently undertaken projects aimed at transmitting power over long distances using laser-based systems.
While Prime Movr’s solution operates at a smaller scale compared to these initiatives, the company aims to address a wide range of practical wireless power applications.
The technology is designed to support powering devices in scenarios where wired connections or conventional charging methods are impractical.
Design Manager Adel Muhammed of Port Said, Egypt, highlighted the potential for new use cases enabled by the technology. He stated that innovations in laser power transmission could make applications such as long-distance powering of remote sensors and outdoor cameras more feasible than before.
Prime Movr Explores Laser and RF-Based Wireless Power Technologies
In parallel, the founders of Prime Movr are also developing wireless power transmission technology using radio frequency (RF) in collaboration with the University of Kashmir’s Institute of Technology.
While RF development continues, the team recognises that laser-based systems offer distinct advantages, including higher energy density and precise targeting capabilities.
These characteristics make laser power transmission particularly suitable for powering remote, mobile, and hard-to-access electronic systems.
The technology can be leveraged for applications such as remote sensors, outdoor surveillance cameras, and other autonomous systems where traditional wired or inductive charging solutions are not viable.
