Abstract
A mobile radiography system has a moveable transport frame configured to travel across a floor. An adjustable support structure is coupled to the moveable transport frame and an x-ray source is coupled to the adjustable support structure. A power transmitter emits wireless power signals to a digital detector to charge a battery therein. Power signal receiving circuitry in the detector receives the wireless power signals to generate recharging current for the battery.
