1. An apparatus, comprising:
a sensor;
one or more antennas; and
a control circuitry coupled to the one or more antennas, the control circuitry to receive command signals from a host controller in response to execution of instructions by the host controller; the control circuitry to control wireless charging via a first coil of the one or more antennas in response to the command signals, the control circuitry to control wireless energy transfer via the first coil to perform wireless inductive power charging via a coil of a wireless charging enabled device based on the command signals from the host controller, the command signals based on input from the sensor, and to perform near field communications via a second coil of the one or more antennas.
