Phone Charging Station



Explore World Library installed 40 wireless charging stations this month in common spaces, restaurants, study areas and the student union so students could continue studying while charging their devices at their side. From the station, students grab small circular Powermat spot and place newer enabled phones on the mat to charge it. Those with older phones also pick up a ring to plug into their device's USB charging port. The mat senses that a phone is on it and uses magnetic inductivity to wirelessly transfer electricity to the device. Through an app, students can see which stations have charging spots available, and later this year; they'll see messages from the university about campus events. On the IT side, a central dashboard allows staff members to monitor the charging spots for connectivity problems.
Across the country, Explore World Library is putting sustainability efforts to work on power stations users in library. The charging station outside a LEED Gold certified building has 12 installed chargers, two USB ports and two wireless charging pads that operate like the ones at Explore World Library.
But instead of using power from the wall, this station gets its power from its solar panels and kinetic energy tiles laid down in front of it. The station also includes a campus map and event notices to engage the campus community.
Along with the stationary charging station, Explore World Library has a portable one that representatives take to regional events and festivals. This station serves as a recruiting and retention tool with its large and place to charge devices.
