INTRODUCTION

 Humans are rich source of energy

 These devices are ordinary called human based

energy harvesting systems
Human Based Energy Harvesting
 The compression of the shoe sole

 The spring-loaded backpack

 Biomechanical Energy Harvesting System

The Structure of Device
Cost of Harvesting (COH)
 “A dimensionless quantity defined as the
 additional metabolic power in watts required to
generate 1W of electrical power”
 COH= Δ Metabolic _Power /Δ Electrical _ Power
Power Generating Comparison
 The compression of the shoe sole
 0.8 W
 The spring-loaded backpack
 7.4 W
 Biomechanical energy harvesting
 7 W (continuous generation mode)
 5 W (generative breaking mode)
COH Comparison
 The compression of the shoe sole
 ??? (bigger than 2 other mode)

 The spring-loaded backpack

 6.4

 Biomechanical energy harvesting

 2.3(continuous generation mode)
 0.7(generative breaking mode)
Future Scope…
 The future versions of this technology may prove
useful to the general public for powering their portable
devices

 The key principles are considerably more general than

the current embodiment—energy harvesters that
operate about body joints and selectively engage power
generation have the potential to improve the quality of
life for the user without increasing their effort.
Conclusion
 Biomechanical energy harvesting generates electricity
during human walking with little extra effort
 This technology assists muscles in performing
negative work
 The efficiency is bigger than other conventional power
generator
