Abstract

A wireless charging system comprising a wireless charger for charging a chargeable device in a charging region in a vehicle. The system includes a controller that detects a charging status of the chargeable device in the charging region and an indicator in proximity to or on the charging region for indicating the charging status by illuminating one or more light sources.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to wireless charging systems and, more particularly, to indicating charging status while wirelessly charging portable devices in vehicles. Background technique [0002] Portable battery-operated electronic devices, such as cell phones, use rechargeable batteries that must be recharged when the battery is depleted. Typically, an electric or electronic device is physically connected to an electrical charger through a cable connection. More recently, wireless charging devices such as inductive chargers can be used to charge batteries without any physical wire connection between the electronic device and the charging device. Wireless chargers transmit power from a charging device to a battery or receiver on a device with a battery to be charged by using an electromagnetic transducer to generate an electromagnetic field. Induction chargers transmit power from a charging device to a receiver on a battery or device wi...
