Survey on EcoStride Power Generation System Harnessing for Sustainable Energy
Footsteps, a ubiquitous source of mechanical energy, present a unique opportunity for sustainable power generation. With increasing mobile device dependency, this innovative approach addresses the challenge of eco-friendly energy solutions.Public spaces, especially high-footfall areas, provide an ideal setting for implementing such systems, benefiting users and reducing energy reliance. This study introduces a system that leverages piezoelectric sensors integrated into flooring to harvest energy from footsteps and convert it into electricity. The addition of RFID technology ensures that access to the stored energy is secure and authenticated for purposes like mobile charging. Notable features include effective energy conversion, real-time energy usage tracking, and secure access via RFID-based authentication. By utilizing renewable energy sources, the system aims to lower environmental impact and support sustainable practices in urban infrastructure.
