ACV’s vehicle specific Inbay solutions turn storage panels, pockets and compartments into easily accessible places for safe and convenient smartphone charging by means of resonant inductive coupling. More vehicle specific applications and models will follow soon.

Inbay is Qi compatible and can be used with a vast range of iOS and Android phones: The Qi standard is facilitating interoperability of chargers by implementing resonant inductive coupling between (energy-) transmitter and receiver. The Qi standard makes it possible to provide a universal charging interface to various smartphone brands and types. In practice, this means no more hassle in looking for the right charging cable when different cell phones are in use. Inductive charging means that a transmission coil, powered by a high-frequency AC, builds up a magnetic field which inducts the power into a second coil in the Qi standardized smartphone from where it passes into the battery.
