Green Power Generation Using Piezo-Energy

Abstract

In the last few years low-power electronic devices have been increased rapidly. Nowadays the large number of electronics devices we are using in day-to-day life. The generation of power by nonconventional method, in this method we are generating power through footstep when human walking on the floor then there is the generation of mechanical energy. This mechanical energy we are converting into electrical energy by using piezoelectric sensors. Such a piezoelectric sensor can produce electrical energy when some kind of pressure is applied to it like human pressure, as per the property of the piezoelectric crystal. We are making a small circuit which will be fitted in shoes to store this generated power. When humans walking on the floor by using these shoes the power or the energy will store in the shoes themselves. In this paper, the power which we are generating by human walking energy is using in mobile charging. That is we can use this generated power in day-to-day life activities. For making this circuit we are designing a PCB, which will be easily fitted in the shoe. The main aim of our paper is to generate power through footsteps and utilizing this generated power in different applications.
