Original Abstract Submitted
A computing device configured to removably attach a component comprises a housing comprising first and second device electromagnets. A wireless charging transmitting antenna is between the electromagnets. Instructions are executable by a processor to synchronize a first device current through the first device electromagnet with a first component current through a first component electromagnet of the component to attract the electromagnets, and to synchronize a second device current through the second device electromagnet with a second component current through a second component electromagnet of the component to attract the electromagnets.
