Systems, methods, and apparatus related to inductive power transfer transmitter with sonic emitter

This invention describes a system that wirelessly charges devices while also deterring living creatures. It works by sending out wireless power and simultaneously activating a deterrent. The specific version described in the claims uses sound, particularly high-pitched ultrasonic sound, to deter these objects.

Why it matters: Filed before widespread adoption of electric vehicles and the maturation of wireless charging standards. The growing infrastructure for wireless EV charging makes the integration of a living object deterrent, particularly for safety around charging pads, a more pressing concern than it was in 2013.
