The United States was the first to implement wireless charging technology for electric vehicles. West of downtown Detroit is a wireless charging public roadway. Copper inductive charging coils installed beneath Detroit Street aid in charging while driving.
Receivers in vehicles let the battery charge while driving or parked over the coils. The innovative gadget was put through its paces in Michigan's Central Innovation District.
