IoT Based Smart Battery Station Using Wireless Power Transfer Technology

IoT technology has been playing an increasingly important role in the development of modern technology. The idea of ―smart devices‖, which are able to regulate and maintain themselves as well as respond to external stimuli has led to the new paradigm in appliance manufacturing, of which the household appliance and the electrical industries are the most affected. Also, on a side note, there have been many strides in wireless power transfer technology, some of which are great improvements in efficiency and reduction in size, which bring the technology closer to household applications. This project effectively aims to utilize the conjunction of the two aforementioned technologies to create a prototype of a smart appliance, a battery charging station powered wirelessly and integrated with IoT technology, which enable the user to continuously monitor the critical parameters of the battery, such as charge level, input and output current, etc,. The logged data can also be accessed from anywhere, such as a smartphone or a PC, due to it’s easy availability as it is uploaded to the cloud. Thus, this project synthesizes a new generation of electronic devices, as demonstrated by the above discussed prototype
