Meet Spark Connected at electronica 2018 - Nov. 13-16, 2018

Munich, Germany. November 13, 2018.

Spark Connected, (www.sparkconnected.com) a leading technology developer of advanced and innovative wireless power system solutions, demonstrates new wireless power technology for industrial markets at the 2018 electronica show.

The 80-Watt wireless power solution named The Ogre, consists of both a high-power transmitter and companion high-power receiver. This technology can be ideal for applications such as automated vacuum cleaners, unmanned drones and inventory management robots. The system offers high efficiency, robust performance, foreign object detection (FOD) and the ability to hermetically seal products to protect systems from moisture and dust, which can be advantageous in factory environments.

“With the rapidly evolving manufacturing technology trends in Industry 4.0, planning for power management and battery charging continues to be a critical element in the transition. Wireless power can be a formidable tool that can solve key challenges in unmanned automated systems that operate in harsh Industrial environments”, said Ken Moore, Chief Executive Officer at Spark Connected.

Feature summary:

  • Supports the industry’s highest power levels on the smallest coils
  • High efficiency 80W charging without exotic thermal management
  • Supports future products and standards with a software upgrade
  • Built-in safety features, ensuring a safe and simple user charging experience
  • Products can be hermetically sealed and still allow charging / power deliveryPowered by the Infineon XMC™ Wireless Power Controller

Spark Connected expands into industrial at electronica 2018!

Meet Spark Connected at electronica 2018 - Nov. 13-16, 2018

I am a huge fan of wireless charging on my smartphone. The ability to top off my phone battery at any of the strategically located charging pads sprinkled around my home and office ensures the phone is always ready to perform any task I require. But did you realize that wireless power isn’t just for smartphones? From medical tablets in a busy doctor’s office, to autonomous inventory management robots and drones in a large fulfillment center, many devices can greatly benefit by removing cables and connectors.

Combine wireless power with next generation technologies powering IoT and Smart Factories, and you have a powerful recipe that can deliver the next wave of key applications all with a satisfying user experience.

If you want to learn more, and you are in Munich next week, stop by the electronica show in Messe München, Hall C3, Booth #502. I’ll see you there.
