Fuel Doctor Inc., a Delaware corporation, announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Charging Robotics Ltd. ("Charging Robotics"), an innovator of wireless charging solutions, announces today it has successfully completed an important milestone towards the installation of its wireless charging system in automatic car parks as part of its pilot program with an automatic car park provider in Israel.
This milestone included a successful experiment for transferring high voltage (up to 450 V) electricity in a wireless manner needed for electric vehicle (“EV”) charging. The experiment was conducted in order to verify that the proprietary voltage and current control algorithms developed by Charging Robotics are capable of controlling the voltage and current within the required limits.
The experimental system included two resonance coils designed and manufactured by Charging Robotics. These coils were held at an air gap distance of 40mm. The electricity was transferred from one coil to the other by means of electromagnetic induction.
The source for the electricity was a direct current electricity (“DC”) power supply fed from 3 phase grid power sources. The DC power was converted to alternating current (“AC”) at resonance frequency using a power circuit designed by Charging Robotics that fed the transmitting coil. From the receiving coil, the induced power was converted from AC to DC using a similar power circuit. All algorithms needed for the control of the system were developed by Charging Robotics.
This successful experiment allows the pilot program to progress to the next step, which will be the full charging of an EV using the wireless charging system developed by Charging Robotics at a higher voltage. Success in the next experiment would be followed by the installation of the system at the automatic car park to be used for charging EVs in a wireless manner.
Charging Robotics is currently piloting its unique wireless charging solution with an automatic car park provider in Israel to evaluate Charging Robotics' wireless charging system for EVs.
According to Market.us, the global Automated Parking System market was valued at USD 1.8 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow to USD 5.2 billion by 2032. Between 2023 and 2032, this market is estimated to register a CAGR of 11.4%. Alongside the expected growth in the EV market, the combination of EVs and automated parking creates potential for a more sustainable and efficient future for transportation.
