Abstract
A wireless charging system for use in vehicles includes power transmitting coils which are used for resonant power transfer to power receiving devices in the vehicle. The system includes a detection system for detecting power receiving devices in the vicinity of the transmitting coils so that only the power transmitting coils having objects detected nearby are activated. The system also includes a tuning circuit that enables power transmitting coils to be tuned with respect to each other to increase the power delivery range or detuned with respect to each other to decrease interference between coils.
