  <title>Omari Bouknight - Resonant Link Medical and the Next Generation of Wirelessly Powered Neurotech</title>
  <description>In this episode of the Neural Implant Podcast, host Dr. Ladan Jiracek sits down with&amp;amp;nbsp;Omari Bouknight, CEO of Resonant Link Medical, to explore how advances in wireless power transfer are reshaping the future of implantable medical devices. Omari shares how traditional power limitations have historically constrained device design—and how Resonant Link Medical’s technology is turning power into an enabler, allowing for smaller, smarter, and longer-lasting implants. The conversation dives into real-world applications across neurotech and beyond, including how faster, more efficient wireless charging could unlock advanced closed-loop therapies, high-data-rate neural systems, and more fully implantable devices Top 3 Takeaways:  Resonant Link Medical’s key breakthrough is highly efficient and flexible wireless power: their multi-layer self-resonant structure (MSRS) coil technology enables high-efficiency wireless energy transfer with minimal heat generation, and innovations in power electronics and data transfer support highly adaptive systems with high tolerance to misalignment. This solves two major historical barriers to implantable wireless charging, allowing patients to quickly and easily recharge devices during normal daily activity. Wireless power works deeper in the body and tolerates real-world movement: Resonant Link Medical’s system can deliver power at depths up to ~6 cm (and potentially more) while allowing several centimeters of lateral misalignment and angular tilt. This enables reliable charging even with normal body motion and imperfect alignment at up to 15 W of power. Wireless power is becoming a foundational enabler across implantable devices, ranging from brain-computer-interfaces (BCIs) and spinal cord stimulators to peripheral nerve, sleep apnea, and even cardiac and orthopedic implants. Resonant Link Medical’s platform technology is helping unlock closed-loop therapies, new targets, and smarter devices—and the field of active implantables is still only at the very beginning of its potential.  0:45 Do you want to introduce yourself better than I just did? 1:30 Tell us a bit more about the technology 5:00 What does the form factor look like? 7:15 What are the misalignment tolerances? 9:15 Are you guys device agnostic and just want to power people's neurotech devices? 10:15 What are the dimensions? 12:45 What are some of the areas you guys have worked in? 18:00 What's the history of the company? 21:30 What's in store in the future for these devices? &amp;amp;nbsp; </description>
