We’re all familiar with the feeling of having no battery left at the worst possible moment, the frustration if we forget our charger,
can’t find a free outlet or have to struggle with too many cords…
And we all wish charging was a bit simpler.
Let’s face it, charging has become a hassle. With the ever-growing number of electronic devices in our lives, we all just want a simple charging solution.
So we, the Humavox team, passionately took on the challenge and began thinking of what would be the most natural charging experience for all types of users. We realized, however, that a natural charging experience changes with different products and between different users. And so we created a wireless charging solution flexible enough so it can wear many shapes and forms and fit into endless types of devices and products.
That way- everyone can integrate it and everybody can use it.
With this guiding rule in mind, we built our wireless charging technology from the ground up as a flexible hardware platform. We call it ETERNATM.
ETERNA is tangibly implemented through a charging station that is designed freely to most naturally fit the user’s instinctive habits and a small receiver that can be easily inserted into the smallest of electronic devices.
Throughout the development of our technology our main inspiration is the everyday user and the way they naturally use their electronic devices. For them, we coined the term Intuitive Charging.
Intuitive Charging is our belief that electronic devices should recharge exactly where we place them, regardless of how we placed them. Simplifying the charging experience so it becomes natural, seamless and hassle-free to everyone
More about ETERNAMaking the charging experience as seamless for users as Wi-Fi for wireless connectivity-
it’s just there for us to use.
