Dave Baarman

Fulton Innovation - Director of Advanced Technologies

David Baarman is the Director of Advanced Technologies at Fulton Innovation and the lead inventor of eCoupled™ intelligent wireless power technology that replaces power cords in household appliances, phones, and even electric vehicles by delivery of the same electricity but without cords or wires. Mr. Baarman is responsible for the technical supervision and development of eCoupled technology and other Fulton Innovation technologies. Mr. Baarman joined Amway in 1997, where he first pioneered the use of intelligent inductive coupling in the eSpring™ Water Purifier. With over 20 years of leadership experience in the development of consumer and industrial products, Mr. Baarman took the technology behind eSpring and developed it to power everyday technologies, including consumer electronics, with a diverse range of power needs. Mr. Baarman has more than 700 U.S. and foreign patents that are granted or pending.

Quotes

“Technical invention is akin to architecture and the experts must in time come to the same conclusions I have reached long ago. Sooner or later my power system will have to be adopted in its entirety and so far as I am concerned it is as good as done.”
