See full text

A base unit is provided for a charging station for inductively charging an electrical store of a vehicle. The base unit has a primary coil, which is designed, if there is electromagnetic coupling to a secondary coil of the vehicle, to transmit electrical energy to the secondary coil. The base unit also has an image sensor, which is designed to capture image data of at least a part of the vehicle. In addition, the base unit has a control unit, which is designed to provide or use the image data for positioning the secondary coil in relation to the primary coil.
