The majority of alarm clocks designed to charge devices simultaneously usually have a built-in dock; however, the Oregon Scientific Time and Wireless Charging Station has taken a different approach.
Instead of utilizing a dock with the typical 30-pin connector, the Oregon Scientific Time and Wireless Charging Station uses a pad instead. In other words, the user simply lays their device flat to charge without having to connect it in any way. This means that no one has to worry if their device is compatible. Aside from the charging flatbed, the station also doubles as an alarm clock with time displayed on an LCD piece. Other goodies include a barometer for weather forecast and a projector display.
