Korean startup CNA develops the world’s smartest auto-navigation & fastest wireless charger

Most car owners now use smartphone navigation systems for convenience and ease over inbuilt car navigation systems. Demand for car mounts for smartphones for navigation is also increasing. Korean startup CNA have created the world’s smartest wireless phone charger XCAN and auto-navigation mount that uses NFC technology. The user has to mount the smartphone onto the XCAN holder, and it will automatically start navigating and charging the phone. 

2-in-1 device for dual wireless phone charging & holding.

 CNA produced XCAN after studying numerous wireless charging and NFC applications on daily appliances. XCAN charges phones faster and is equipped with NFC technology that launches apps automatically. When car drivers put their phone on XCAN, its wings hold it and automatically turn on the navigation system. Drivers can put desired applications like music or other navigation apps in the XCAN through NFC, so apps will be executed automatically when phones are on the XCAN. When the car is turned off, XCAN immediately opens its slides, making picking out the phone easy.  

XCAN has received a lot of attention from car owners for its unique technology that blocks interference between NFC and wireless charging, which many other wireless products cannot. It helps drivers pay attention to the road over worrying about charging and navigation, helping avoid accidents. XCAN offers an exclusive app, “XCAN Tools,” for free, where the user can register navigation for an automatic run. This app supports both Android and iOS.

CNA innovating in smartphone cradles technology 

The user can adjust the angle and distance of XCAN to place their phone on it. Also, the package includestwo types of holders that users can use according to the situation. A dashboard mount can be attached to a glass surface or a blower clip that can be clipped onto the air conditioning blower. CNA has implemented its technology, professionalism, and developments to create the XCAN. CNA has put up its smart navigation and wireless charging mount on crowdfunding site Kickstarter and has received tremendous response. 

Founded in 2016, CNA Co., Ltd is a provider of innovative smartphone cradles. Its product provides free wireless charging for customers in offline stores like cafeterias and beauty shops; simultaneously, it shows menus and advertisements on the customers’ smartphones and customers can secure orders. In addition, at airports and tourist attractions, it can recognize each smartphone’s basis language and provide content in that particular language.
