An apparatus for charging an electric vehicle, can include a robotic system including a charge transmitting coil autonomously navigable along a ground surface to interface with a charge receiving coil mounted underneath an electric vehicle (EV). The robotic system can be automatically moveable and directable from storage against a wall toward a target area on the electric vehicle associated with a receiving coil mounted on the EV for the charging of the EV when the transmitting coil engages closely with the receiving coil when the robotic system becomes located below the charge receiving coil mounted to the EV. One or more optical sensors can be utilized to direct the robotic system toward the target area.
