Project power shoe: Piezoelectric wireless power transfer — A mobile charging technique

When a person walks, pressure is exerted on the ground and this pressure can be converted into electrical energy and it can be used to power electronic devices. In this paper a Mobile charging system is designed. A piezo electric generator is placed in the shoe. The power that is generated by piezo...

Summary:When a person walks, pressure is exerted on the ground and this pressure can be converted into electrical energy and it can be used to power electronic devices. In this paper a Mobile charging system is designed. A piezo electric generator is placed in the shoe. The power that is generated by piezo electric generator when a person walks is transferred to the device by using a mid-range wireless power transfer (WPT) which is a Resonance coupling technique.
