A combined metal object detection (MOD) and live object detection (LOD) system for a wireless power transfer (WPT) system in an electric vehicle (EV) charging application, and methods for use, are provided. The combined MOD and LOD system may comprise a transmitting pad, a detection coil pad coupled to the transmitting pad, and a receiving pad positioned adjacent to the transmitting pad. The transmitting pad, the detection coil pad, and the receiving pad may be configured such that, when a living object or a metal object appears between the transmitting pad and the receiving pad, an inductance or capacitance value change of the detection coil pad occurs.
