Cover Story: Powering vital sign sensors for infants in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) requires innovative approaches, as traditional wired systems can cause tangling, hinder operations, and interfere with parent–infant bonding, such as skin-to-skin contact. Additionally, battery-powered systems may pose risks to an infant’s sensitive skin. This paper presents a wireless power transfer (WPT) system specifically designed for NICU applications. Utilizing a three-coil inductive link, the system wirelessly powers wearable devices that monitor vital signs in newborns, eliminating the need for cumbersome wired setups and avoiding the risks associated with batteries. The design ensures high efficiency over varying distances while adhering to safety standards, offering a reliable solution for continuous physiological monitoring in critical care settings.
