NOW RECHARGE PHONES IN- CAR WITHOUT WIRES

Accessory manufacturer PowerSquare has just announced in- car wireless charging solutions for the automotive sector. The company is working with Automobile OEM’s and Tier- 1 suppliers to manufacture the module and provide a completely “Made in India” wireless charging solution for cars in India.

PowerSquare claims that this in- car wireless charging solution is trying to eliminate the need to search for power cords or charging cables to power- up each handheld device. The user should place the device on the charging area and the power is wirelessly transferred to the device. This lets the user charge any brand of Qicompatible device.

The in- car wireless charging module is a 3 coil- design which can be customised and placed on the dashboard, central console or armrest. The module supports Qi- compatible phones with full 5W and 15W receiving capabilities. The system is designed to detect the type of device on the charging area and optimises the charging rate appropriately. The system will differentiate between an iPhone and a Samsung phone and deliver 7.5W or a 10W faster- charging mode to the device. It also features protection against over voltage, over current and over temperature. Optional NFC or proximity and Foreign Object Detection ( FOD), which detects objects before power transfer, are also featured in this charging module.
