Rotation Energy Harvesting Device

Abstract:

An innovative approach to energy harvesting is to integrate the capture of fragmented energy with micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) to achieve the power self-sufficiency needed for the circuit to function as an autonomous system. This study used a micro-motor as a micro-generator for capturing not only fragmented energy, but also instantaneous energy. The experimental results confirm that energy can be captured from uncollected daily rotational mechanical energy with sufficiently high efficiency and low cost to replace the conventional battery power used in wireless sensors. Applications of this technology in green buildings can not only reduce the energy wasted by wiring, but can also improve internal aesthetics.
