Abstract

Walking is the most common activity in day to day life. When a person walks, he loses energy to the road
surface in the form of impact, vibration, sound etc, due to the transfer of his weight on to the road surface, through foot
falls on the ground during every step. This energy can be tapped and converted in the usable form such as in electrical
form. We have used rack and pinion mechanism to produce the electricity.
So, this kind of Footstep power Generation can be converted into electrical energy and we can generate the power
without any external fuel and generate the power which is wasted on the road. So, the whole human/bio-energy being
wasted if it can be made possible for the utilization it will great indentation and this type of crowd energy frames will be
very useful energy in most crowded country like INDIA and CHINA
