SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR NON-CONTACT INTERACTION WITH MOBILE DEVICES

Disclosed is a system and method for controlling handheld devices without contact by interacting with their wireless charging coils or other inductive coil antennae. The present disclosure utilizes the interaction between human body and the coil wherein the coil is used to send alternating magnetic field to interact with a control signal, such as a hand, instead of simply using the coil in the smart phone as a power receiver. The hand movement in front of the wireless charging coil changes the coil's conductivity distribution, which creates effective coil impedance also known as reflected impedance.
