In an embodiment, an apparatus for charging an electric vehicle, can include a receptacle mountable to a structure above the electric vehicle. The receptacle can maintain a charge transmitting device, which can be automatically moveable and directable from the receptacle toward a target area on the electric vehicle associated with a receiving coil mounted on the electric vehicle for the charging of an electric vehicle when the one receiving coil engages with the charge transmitting device when the electric vehicle is located below the receptacle. One or more optical sensors can be utilized to direct the charge transmitting device toward the target.
