About this project

Advanced Footstep Power Generation System using RFID for Charging

Objective: Build a footstep-powered energy harvesting system with RFID-based user identification for device charging.

Context: With India's dense public spaces, harnessing foot traffic for sustainable energy can power small devices and promote green technology adoption. RFID integration enables personalized charging and usage tracking.

What you'll build: You'll install piezoelectric sensors in a floor mat to convert footsteps into electrical energy, interfaced with an Arduino UNO for energy management. An RFID module (RC522) will identify users, and the harvested power will be stored in a battery or supercapacitor for charging devices. Embedded systems programming will coordinate energy flow and user authentication.

Deliverables: Working prototype floor mat, demonstration video, and technical documentation on system performance and user interaction.

Milestones
1.
Submit a brief project plan outlining your approach, listing required components, and specifying the sequence of milestones. Include a schematic diagram showing the integration of piezoelectric sensors, RFID module, power storage, and charging circuit. The plan should clearly demonstrate your understanding of the system architecture.
2. Piezoelectric floor setup
5 marks 5d
Assemble a piezoelectric floor section capable of generating electrical energy from footsteps. Provide photos and a short video demonstrating voltage output when pressure is applied. Submit wiring diagrams and measured data showing consistent energy generation across multiple trials.
3. RFID module integration
5 marks 5d
Integrate an RFID module with your system to uniquely identify users stepping on the piezoelectric floor. Submit code snippets, connection diagrams, and a video showing successful detection and logging of RFID tags. Demonstrate accurate user identification in real-time during footstep events.
4. Power storage system development
5 marks 5d
Develop and connect a power storage unit (such as a rechargeable battery or supercapacitor) to store energy generated from the piezoelectric floor. Submit circuit diagrams and test data showing successful energy transfer and storage. Demonstrate the storage unit charging from footstep-generated power.
5. Charging circuit testing
5 marks 5d
Test and validate the charging circuit by connecting it to the power storage system and measuring charging efficiency. Submit oscilloscope screenshots or voltage/current logs showing stable charging behavior. Provide a brief report on circuit stability and any observed issues during testing.
6. Demo with user identification & power output
15 marks 5d
Conduct a live demonstration where users are identified via RFID and their footsteps generate measurable power output, which is stored and used for charging. Submit a video of the demo, annotated data logs showing user IDs and corresponding power generated, and a summary table of results.
7. Induction Motor Speed Controller Project
15 marks 5d
Build and test an induction motor speed controller powered by the stored energy from the footstep system. Submit circuit diagrams, code, and a video showing the motor running at variable speeds controlled by your system. Demonstrate stable operation and explain how the controller utilizes the harvested energy.
