Abstract |
In this article, the authors present the energy potential associated with an electromechanical resonant
generator that uses natural movements of the human body during walking motion, as a means of
increasing the autonomy of portable electronic systems. The article begins by characterizing the
human walk in terms of frequency and hip displacement amplitude. A combined mechanical and
electrical study is then conducted in order to determine an order of magnitude for recoverable power. |
