Power Generation Through Piezoelectric Plates in a Punching Bag

Teenagers these days prefer practicing a sport frequently. This project describes the system with a theme where “Productivity meets sustainability” in an effort to strengthen their sincerity. In this project, we harness the power of piezoelectric materials to explore innovative applications. The study investigates the integration of piezoelectric plates into a punching bag as an innovative way of producing sustainable power. The piezoelectric plates smoothly transform the kinetic energy generated by punches and kicks into electrical power by utilizing this mechanical energy. The system includes a rechargeable battery for energy storage, a DC-DC booster for voltage optimization, and a bridge rectifier to convert the generated alternating current into direct current. The suggested configuration presents a unique use of piezoelectric technology in the fitness industry in addition to providing a green and renewable energy option. Possible uses include supplying electronic devices with electricity, adding to the wider energy grid, and incorporating environmentally friendly power generation into fitness centers or home exercise equipment. This investigation adds to the expanding field of environmentally friendly energy harvesting and demonstrates the adaptability of piezoelectric technology in cutting-edge power generation systems.
