Abstract
An augmented reality system may include an electronic contact lens and a power source. In order to enable the wireless transfer of power and data between the contact lens and the power source, one or both of the contact lens and the power source may contain solenoids. When current is driven through an embedded solenoid of the power source, the solenoid can produce a time-varying magnetic field. Likewise, when an embedded solenoid of the contact lens is in the presence of a time-varying magnetic field, a current is induced within the solenoid that may be used to power electronic components within the contact lens. Multiple solenoids may be embedded within the power source or the contact lens at positions and orientations that enable the contact lens to wirelessly receive power from a magnetic field produced by the power source at a variety of orientations.
