Abstract

Piezoelectric materials are those that can be used to turn environmental vibrations into electrical energy. After that, The stored energy will be used to power other gadgets. Piezoelectric power generation in microscale devices can provide an alternate power source for certain types of sensors or actuators. A piezoelectric generator is a component that converts vibrations energy into electrical energy. A milistructure of bi-morph piezoelectric material will be used in this project. This material will be used to convert vibrations in the environment into electrical energy. On the ground, a piezoelectric generator is used. where it will absord the vibration from people walking or running in order to convert to electrical energy. Human being always produce vibration when on the ground when moving, and then can use piezoelectric to produce electrical energy. This electrical energy then will be used to power electronic components such as LED or any gadgets that required electrical input power. It will transform vibration energy to electrical energy using the piezoelectric concept. In this project, the piezoelectric will convert vibration energy from people walking to an electrical energy and will light up the welcoming signage.
