A toy system comprising a plurality of toy construction elements, having detachably interconnecting coupling members for creating coherent spatial structures. The plurality of toy construction elements include: an energy source device comprising a housing and an energy transfer circuit therein; and energy distribution devices to provide respective external conductive loops extending outside the housing and defining a respective external energy transfer zone in a proximity of the respective external conductive loops. The energy source device is configured to be brought into operational connection with the energy distribution devices. The energy transfer circuit is configured to receive electrical energy from an energy source and, when the energy source device is in operational connection with a first energy distribution device, to energize the external conductive loops creating a time-varying electromagnetic field in an external energy transfer zone defined by the first energy distribution device in a proximity of the external conductive loops.

Toy system having a contactless energy transfer system

An interactive toy, system, and method of controlling the same. The interactive toy includes a toy housing comprising therein a function device performing user-perceptible, controllable functions; a control circuit controlling the function device; a rechargeable power source providing operating power to the function device and the control circuit; and a charging circuit for contactless receipt of electrical energy and for charging the rechargeable power source when the interactive toy is positioned in a charging zone of a contactless charging device. The control circuit receives a primary signal indicative of an interaction stimulus; a secondary signal indicative of a position of the interactive toy with respect to the charging zone; and, responsive to the primary signal, controls the function device to perform a user-perceptible function selected based on the secondary signal. The interactive toy system includes an interactive toy and a contactless charging device defining one or more charging zones.

Rechargeable interactive toy

An electrically small antenna operable in both single-ended and differential antenna systems, and corresponding circuitry configurations, is provided. The antenna may be arranged on or in a wearable audio device, such as an earbud. The antenna may include a first curved arm electrically coupled to a first port. The antenna may include a second curved arm of equal size and equal shape as the first curved arm and electrically coupled to a second port. The second curved arm may be rotationally positioned 180 degrees, relative to the first curved arm, about an imaginary axis perpendicular to a surface of the wearable audio device. The single-ended antenna system may include a radio frequency integrated circuit ('RFIC'), fixed matching network, a tuneable capacitor, and a switching circuit. The differential antenna system may include an RFIC, fixed matching network, a tuneable capacitor, and a balun.
