Design and Analysis of Power Generation System using Human Footsteps
- Abstract
This project is all about creating a cool system that turns human footsteps into electricity! Electricity, as you know, is super important and we're using more of it every day, especially with more people around. While renewable sources like solar and wind energy are great, they have some limits. Did you know that an average person takes about 3,000 to 5,000 steps? It’s true! Locations like malls and airports always have long lines. So, why not put a footstep power system at these places? As people step onto it, we can generate electricity. This energy will be produced every day. Our project combines the piezoelectric effect with the Rack & Pinion mechanism.
