The patent, available here,<http://appft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PG01&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.html&r=1&f=G&l=50&s1=%2220120235510%22.PGNR.&OS=DN/20120235510&RS=DN/20120235510?ystfuv> would use "electromagnetic induction using printed coils" to create a charge, according to the patent application.

TechCrunch says its likely the motion-based charge wouldn't be intended to fully charge the device, just to keep it going throughout the day. Written by Lisa Ward.
