Title: Inductive wireless charging
Post by: mallorentec on June 17, 2013, 05:58:27 AM

Hi all,

I think that it would be very useful to have an inductive wireless charging shield compliant with the wireless charging standards. This would make easier building prototypes for automatic task robots (the battery charging could become also an automatic task).

Thanks for your great work!

+1. This will definitely come in very handy for autonomous project.

Yeah just like Pit Road on F-Zero!

This gets my vote because the idea of an autonomous vehicle with a charging station sounds awesome, but I'm curious what would be inductively charged? I'm not aware of any powerful and rechargeable coin cell batteries that would make it worth inductively charging. I'm planning on powering my projects with a portable cell phone charger as a result. If the logistics could be worked out however, I'd certainly get one.

Hi jordyjoe1,

I think this could be useful. I haven't used it, but it seems suitable.

Mallorentec,

Thanks for the link, this looks very promising. Definitely something I'll want to look into for low power projects.
