Research on Power Generating Tiles
Shashibhushan Mishra
Abstract: In the modern era, the escalating demand for energy underscores the need for groundbreaking innovations. This paper seeks to capitalise on this necessity by transforming non - conventional energy generated through the simple act of walking into a sustainable source of electrical power. The Electricity Generator Tiles, a novel and eco - friendly energy harvesting system, is designed to leverage human motion for power generation. Two 12V DC motors, integrated into the mechanical structure beneath a walking surface, efficiently convert the mechanical energy from footsteps into electrical energy. The generated power is stored in a compact and lightweight 3.7V LiPo battery for convenient storage. Visualising the power generation process is facilitated by the incorporation of two LEDs, providing a real - time display of electricity generation. This portable solution presents a practical means of harvesting energy from human movement, holding promise for diverse applications requiring off - grid power sources. With its innovative design, the Electricity Generator Tiles stands as a sustainable solution to address the ever - growing global energy demand, especially in areas where traditional power sources are limited or unavailable.
