Abstract

The purpose of the study is to study and investigate the potential power produce by using the vehicle vibrations energy harvesting using technique from piezoelectric. This new method of harvesting itself will be used and expected to generate a low voltage output. The piezoelectric sensor is the main component in the design. It works with the vibration placed on it by converting mechanical energy into electrical output. The study involved on investigation of vibration from different point within the car and choosing the best point. The piezoelectric device is then mounted near the selected vibration source from the vehicle. The outcomes will be contributed by vibrations in the vehicle, thus vibrates and displacement to the piezoelectric device to produce electricity. Then, the electricity generated in voltage. The voltages that are generated maybe one of the new ways to produced hybrid cars or recharging the battery that is used by hybrid cars in future. The project is an effective to be used as a method to conserve the wasted energy as well as to reduce the dependencies on fuel. The positive side to take as the main advantage is that the electricity will remain generated as long as the vehicles vibrations are available. Besides, the project is taking into account of the green technology device as recommended and all daily users who are using the cars can get benefits by the system.
