Humans are harvesting energy in wonderfully different ways, which means they think a lot to innovate something which is helpful to society. It's not easy to think about the alternative energy apart from solar, hydro, biogas. Renewable energies are the best alternative energy in today's world. We are generating power through nature by converting heat/pressure/kinetic energy into electrical energy in a more effective way.

If we think about the whole population thousands of footsteps land each second even more than that. Each foot shep creates a great amount of force. An Average human takes 6000 steps. Is it possible to convert all the foot force into electricity?. This project is specially dedicated to those who are living in dark or don't have electricity to use in their day to day life.

Project Description:

Piezoelectric materials: Piezoelectricity is the electric charge that accumulates in certain solid materials (such as crystals, certain ceramics, and biological matter such as bone, DNA, and various proteins) in response to applied mechanical stress. The word piezoelectricity means electricity resulting from pressure and latent heat.
Rechargeable Battery: A rechargeable battery, storage battery, secondary cell, or accumulator is a type of electrical battery which can be charged, discharged into a load, and recharged many times, as opposed to a disposable or primary battery, which is supplied fully charged and discarded after use. It is composed of one or more electrochemical cells
Diode Bridge: A diode bridge is an arrangement of four (or more) diodes in a bridge circuit configuration that provides the same polarity of output for either polarity of the input. When used in its most common application, for conversion of an alternating-current (AC) input into a direct-current (DC) output, it is known as a bridge rectifier.
Multi meter: A multimeter, also known as a VOM (volt-ohm-millimeter), is an electronic measuring instrument that combines several measurement functions in one unit. A typical multimeter can measure voltage, current, and resistance. Analog Multimeters use a micro ammeter with a moving pointer to display readings.
Weight: With the help of gravity, weight will be moving downwards and glows the LED
