Piezo Electric Based Footstep Power Generation System

Date : Oct 2016 - May 2017

As day by day, The population of World is increasing very rapidly, so the power requirement also increased. By the same time the energy wastage also increased in many ways. So we have to use this wastage energy into useable form by many methods. The one of this method is to convert the wastage energy from the human locomotion into useable form. For to overcome this type of problems, we use piezoelectric sensors which convert the wastage energy into useable energy. We generate the energy by human footsteps in this project. These piezoelectric sensors detects the force or pressure from the human footsteps and then converts into electrical signals or useable Energy. This project to generate voltage not current using footstep pressure or force. These type of projects is very useful in public places like shopping malls, bus stands and railway stations etc. The generated output voltage from sensors is used to drive DC Loads. These type of projects is very useful in public places like shopping malls, bus stands and railway stations etc. These type of power generating system should be very popular for populated countries like, Pakistan, China and India etc. So by using this energy saving method, we can produce very good amount of energy for our daily uses.
