Abstract: An apparatus, system and method for wirelessly charging are provided within a vehicular environment. The wireless charging system comprises a seatbelt receptacle containing a transmit coil integrated therein for transmitting a charging signal to a battery or powering a battery operated device. A repeater coil can be wirelessly coupled to the transmit coil via the seatbelt's buckle, as a buckle repeater coil or a retrofit cover repeater coil. Additional repeater coils may be added to a shoulder strap, a lap strap, or other portions of the seat belt harness for additional charging points. The additional repeater coils are slideable to adjust for different body sizes. One or more portable devices having receive coils can be charged or powered wirelessly from the transmit coil in the seatbelt receptacle, the repeater coil of the seatbelt buckle or cover, and/or the additional adjustable strap repeater coils.
