Abstract

This paper discusses the design, building, and examination of a Wireless Energy Transfer (WET) system that works using electromagnetic induction. This system uses an Arduino microcontroller to help control the processes involved in energy transfer. It also includes features from the Internet of Things (IoT), allowing for remote monitoring and operation. To keep the system safe, several important safety features have been added. For example, there is an Infrared (IR) sensor that helps detect any foreign objects that might accidentally get in the way. Additionally, diodes are used to protect the system from issues like reverse current and reverse polarity, which can cause damage. The research goes into detail about how the circuits are designed for both the transmitter and the receiver coils. It also explains the programming logic used in the Arduino for smart control, which helps the system function more intelligently. Furthermore, the paper outlines the IoT architecture, which is the structure that allows for data visualization and remote management, making it easier to see how the system is performing. The experimental results show that this wireless energy transfer system is efficient and reliable. The added safety protocols enhance its overall safety, making it a strong and smart solution for applications that require contactless charging.
