Mobile client device wireless charging, communication, and authentication techniques
First Claim
1. A mobile client device comprising:
- one or more processors;
a display device; and
a memory coupled to the one or more processors and storing instructions that when executed causes the one or more processors to;
establish wireless communication with a substrate having an integrated electromagnetic inductive coil in accordance with the mobile client device being at a distance proximal to the substrate to achieve an inductive connection; and
after establishing the wireless communication via the inductive connection;
receive wireless inductive power from the integrated electromagnetic inductive coil;
establish communication with a device via the integrated electromagnetic inductive coil; and
after establishing communication with the device, operate, via the integrated electromagnetic inductive coil, as a user input device for the device by outputting a user interface on the display device, the user interface being operable to receive user input for the device.

Abstract
Mobile client device wireless charging, communication, and authentication techniques are described. In one or more implementations, a method performed by a mobile client device includes establishing wireless communication with a substrate having an integrated electromagnetic inductive coil in accordance with the mobile client device being at a distance proximal to the substrate to achieve an inductive connection. After establishing the wireless communication, the method includes receiving wireless inductive power from the substrate, establishing communication with a device via the wireless communication with the substrate, and after establishing communication with the device, operating, via the wireless communication, as a user input device for the device by outputting a user interface on a display device of the mobile client device, the user interface being operable to receive user input for the device.
