Recently, the planet has had to deal with significant energy troubles, primarily due to the soaring global energy demand, thus the environment has become the prime topic of the market. The present methodological research aims to produce power from Piezo-conductive human steps as the prime energy source. The mentioned piezoelectric property in some materials is that they produce an electric voltage when they are subjected to mechanical stress, like when someone steps on them. The arrangement of the piezoelectric sensors will be in clusters, and there will be a microcontroller to oversee and control their operations for the purpose of monitoring and regulating. The energy produced will be stored in a lead-acid rechargeable battery, after which it will be provided as either DC or AC through an inverter. The envisioned system will have a monitor that will display the voltage, current, and energy stored in real-time. The testing outputs indicate that converting human footfalls into electrical energy can be done very efficiently, and thus, the electricity can be used on walkways or other areas where people walk a lot. In such a case, the smart rising feet technology could be utilized in places like busy urban transport hubs, educational campuses, and other smart environments that prioritize energy saving. Besides, this approach will reduce our reliance on conventional grid-based power supplies in the future as a result, we will also be in line with the current environmental sustainability initiatives.
