Accelerating the Future of Next-Generation Autonomous Vehicle Designs by Advancing Wireless Power Transfer System Capabilities in Automobiles$703Kvalue2022start2024end

Solace Power has seen a significant uptick in the interest from automotive OEM’s and Tier 1’s toward the design and development of new wireless power transfer systems for autonomous vehicles and EVs. Some of the largest automotive players in the world see the future of the design of electronics in the next generation of automobiles will be increasingly wireless. This project will see Solace Power collaborate with Tier 1 automotive suppliers to solve technical design challenges for EV and autonomous vehicle wireless power applications, as well as to simplify manufacturing of autonomous vehicl

Wireless Power Technology Enhancement and Commercialization - Finalizing a Production Ready System$397Kvalue2020start2021end

The objective of this project is to develop a second-generation production prototype (TRL 7) that delivers an optimized, digitized platform ready to be released for volume manufacturing and complete a 50 unit initial trial production run with the capability for higher volume. The 50-unit production run will target Telecommunications market applications that are nearest in time and are looking for deliverables in Q4 2020 or Q1 2021.

Wireless Power Technology: Technology Improvements and Product Quality Assurance System to Enable Robust Operation and Volume Production$155Kvalue2021start2022end

Harnessing the power of electric fields in an approach called Resonant Capacitive Coupling, Solace Power released its first product based on this technology in 2018. The firm has since invested in strengthening the platform to make it suitable for magnetic and electric field power transfer and developed a capability called High-Frequency Induction, which broadens market applicability. The project's intent is to improve on aspects of the technology to address market demands and develop and implement quality and test systems and to produce a next-generation prototype that can be released for man

Digital Power Control – Class E vs. Class D Topology Assessment.$50.0Kvalue2018start2018end

With the goal of optimizing the cost and complexity of Resonant Capacitive Coupling (RC2, digital power control will be investigated and a variety of class D and E inverter topologies will be compared for different power and loading requirements. ElectroMagnetic Compatibility will be a focus as it strongly impacts the feasibility of the designs.

Advancement and Testing of RC2 for Manufacturability and Quality/Safety$50.0Kvalue2018start2018end

Project focuses on development of accurate impedance detection hardware and advanced software algorithms for implementing adaptive impedance matching in a variable WPT system. Associated Specific Absorption Rate (SAR - measure of the rate of absorption of RF energy in the body) implications will also be investigated.

Youth - Develop Wireless Power Transfer Technologies for Specific Commercial Applications$30.0Kvalue2020start2021end

This Youth project deals with the development of the wireless power transfer link (WPTL) system that Solace has designed and developed in collaboration with Boeing Test & Evaluation. The recent graduate will work on initiating the production validation process andf on undertaking various certification and reliability tests to ensure the product will be certified to aircraft-qualified & ready for manufacturing. In the air-frame to rotor power space, contact based slip rings & roll rings are the traditional solutions for transferring electrical power across any type of rotating joint. This wirel

Youth - Create Mechanical Fixtures for Integrated Circuit Testing (ICT) for Volume Production Tests$30.0Kvalue2021start2021end

The firm will hire a recent mechanical engineering graduate to build mechanical fixtures for volume production tests for integrated circuit testing (ICT). The graduate will also support customer projects and work closely with electronic manufacturing service (EMS) companies.

Youth - Develop New Coil Systems for High Frequency Induction (HFI) to Improve Efficiency, Simplify the Product Complexity, Reduce Cost and Decrease the Size/Volume of Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) Units.$30.0Kvalue2021start2021end

This project involves the hiring of a 2021 Electrical Engineering graduate who will then work on developing new coil systems for High Frequency Induction (HFI) systems to improve efficiency, simplify the product complexity, reduce cost and decrease the size/volume of wireless power transfer (WPT) units.
