Innovation:-

The whole world is running based on non-conventional energy source . Most popular is the

solar pv cell , wind power, tidal wave etc.

Power generation by foot step or body weight

already exist by pizo-electric effect or bymechanical aspect . For pizo-electric-effect output

is very small and number of crystal to increase to

get sufficient output and also cost effective.

From this we are going to a different way toproduce more power with less investment and

minimum maintenance.

Commercial Viability:-

Our project is less cost effective . The componentsused in our project is very much rugged no need togive much attention and needs very lessmaintenance . It is also long lasting.

For p.v cell open area needed, for wind power only

sea side is used but our project can be usedeverywhere, where human traffic is very much likeshopping malls , cinema hall , general markets,railway station , bus stand ,sub way,park and anyhousing complex entrance etc.

To produce electrical power no extra energy orattention is required only human body weight dueto gravitational force is used here as the fuel.

Market Competition:-Basically as mentioned in In economic theory, perfect

competition describes markets such that no participants arelarge enough to have the market power to set the price of ahomogeneous product. Because the conditions for perfectcompetition are strict, there are few if any perfectlycompetitive markets. Still, buyers and sellers in some auction-

type markets, say for commodities or some financial assets,may approximate the concept. Perfect competition serves as abenchmark against which to measure real-life and imperfectlycompetitive markets.

But in this stage we are just started to dream,however mentally

we are very much strong and determined about our success.Basically in Indian market there are four things must need to

maintain i.e-


6/13

Size of the product , price of the product , efficiency,and mostimportant i.e longivity.

We had tried very much to make this product light in weight andsmall in size , till now we are thinking about its modification and

as we mentioned earlier in the technological portion that pizoelectric-effect output is very small and number of crystal toincrease to get sufficient output and also cost effective.So herewe use principle of Electro magnetic Induction and it is a differentway to produce more power with less investment and in

minimum maintenance . So we can able to improve efficiency andcost.

Now as market competitior we face PAVEGEN, it is a britishcompany. They made this product previously. According to ourlimit we are as small as an ant , but according to technology we

have one positive point i.e our basic technology is diferent fromPAVGEN , and we are thinking about its reducement in costs andour motivation is to spread it widely in INDIAN market as well asWORLD market to use this technology over-

Shopping Malls , Cinema Hall , Subway , Busstand , Station etc.places.

Now we want to mention that items that we needed for this

technology is fairly market dependent , hence a rough estimationof rs. 8000 can be given for the construction of the idea.

WORKING PRINCIPLE:-

When a human steps on the device due to his/herbody weight the iron plate moves downwards anddrives the crank shaft which further drives the geararrangements; which further drives the another crankshaft.

This crank shaft then moves the magnet in to andfro motion into a coil. When the magnet moves intothe hollow sections of the coil by the FARADAYSLAW OF ELECTROMAGNETIC INDUCTION current

flows through the copper wires which is AC by nature.A rectifier circuit used to convert it to DC and finallyfed to battery for storing the generated power.

Present Status:-Very recently we have tried gather all the figures

and devices that we need for this project and if

hopefully we will get all the devices then thepractical circuit of this project will be fixed in

between 1 month.A scope for commercialization would be available

if the device is ready to install on the abovementioned places.

Future Work:-

Man has needed and used energy at an increasing rate for his sustenanceand well being ever since he came on the earth a few million years ago.Due to this a lot of energy resources have been exhausted and wasted.Proposal for the utilization of waste energy of foot power with humanlocomotion is very much relevant and important for highly populatedcountries like India and China in future.

PAVGEN a british compnay alredy made this technology , and now adays it is widely used in U.S. In its current form, the PAVEGEN pavingslab contains a low-energy LED which lights up, expressing the energytransfer idea to the user but only consuming around 5% of the energyfrom each footstep.

"This is what I really enjoy about the design," said Richard Miller, headof sustainability at the UK's government-funded Technology Strategy

Board.

We are trying the same but need a

bit of luck and success for this.

One quote that inspire us i.e

"The average person takes 150

million steps in their lifetime,

just imagine the potential,"

Conclusion:-

The project FOOT STEP POWER GENERATION FORRURAL ENERGYAPPLICATION TO RUN A.C. ANDD.C. LOADS is tested and implemented which is thebest economical, affordable energy solution to

common people. This can be used for manyapplications in rural areas where power availability isless or totally absence. As India is a developingcountry where energy management is a big challenge

for huge population. By using this project we candrive both A.C. as well as D.C loads according to theforce we applied on the upper field of the block
