The device will have a mechanism for converting sound energy into electrical energy to charge the devices. First, the sound wave is converted into mechanical vibration, and then it is converted into electrical energy. A circuit will also be provided to convert the generated alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC), which can then be used to charge devices without using an outlet.

Experts consider this move Xiaomi quite ambitious, since the necessary technology for sound charging is in its infancy.
