FLOOR TILE ENERGY HARVESTER: DESIGN STRATEGIES, PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT AND PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS

Developing nations face formidable challenges in the realm of energy generation. Leveraging renewable energy resources emerges as a strategic solution to address this energy crisis. Footstep energy conversion, although a technology in its nascent stage in certain developing regions, holds great promise for electricity generation. This comprehensive review delves into the intricate analyses of the underlying mechanisms for energy extraction, specific design considerations, advancements in prototypes, ongoing implementation initiatives, and the economic dimensions associated with various footstep energy harvesting technologies. The structure of footstep power generation proves to be an economical and reasonable energy solution for individuals in common settings. Its applicability spans numerous uses in rural areas where power availability is scarce or entirely absent. By harnessing energy from non-renewable sources, footstep power generation becomes invaluable for locations without conventional power infrastructure. Its efficacy extends to all roads and various footstep applications, contributing significantly to the generation of unconventional energy such as electricity. 19 journals have been reviewed in terms of design, product development, and performance analysis.
