| dc.description.abstract | This research aims to delve into energy alternatives for
biomedical applications by utilizing waste energy from our
bodies. The focus of this study is based on two types of
energy harvesting: Piezoelectric and Thermoelectric
generators. The findings of this investigation showcase an
average voltage generation per step of the PEG of 52.3mV
and a TEG voltage average of 7.89V @ΔT<10°C. Even so, the
applications of the designed circuits are restricted by their
low current generation. For that matter, the contributions of
this investigation are intended to serve as a stepping-stone for
future developments in human energy harvesting for
biomedical applications. | en_US |
