  Walking into the future: Energy Harvesting from Foot Fall

  By Ramkumar Tadgure, Omkar Jadhav, Danish Pinjari, Abhishek Rahane

  Abstract: The rapid depletion of non-renewable energy resources and the rising demand for sustainable alternatives have led to the exploration of innovative energy harvesting technologies. One such approach is harnessing the untapped mechanical energy produced by human footfalls in crowded public areas. This project presents a novel method of electricity generation using a flywheel-based mechanical system that captures and converts footstep energy into electrical energy. The system is designed to be …
