Human race requires energy at very rapid rate for their living and wellbeing from the time of their arrival on this planet, because of this reason power resources have been worn out and enervated. Proposal for the employment and application of extravagant energy in foots of human is very much to the purpose for extremely populated nations like China and India. Where the streets, rail and bus station are over peopled and packed like sardines moving around the clock. So, using such concept the power can be availed and deployed by converting mechanical energy to electrical energy. In the present scenario, the requirement for energy has been increasing in a distressing rate and the availability of the energy resources are not abundant for sustainable development and the need of the hour is to establish an economical pollution free inexhaustible energy resources to compensate the increasing demands. Since, walking is the most common activity in human day to day life, whenever a person walks he exhausts energy to the ground which goes as a waste. In order to preserve and make use of this energy we are converting it into electrical energy using piezoelectric effect. Piezoelectric effect is utilized by piezoelectric sensor producing output energy in the form of AC voltage. We proposed a system using piezoelectric sensors for power generation from footsteps and generated power is stored in the battery and we can see in the LCD display the generated power.
Hardware Requirement:
· Arduino Nano Microcontroller
· Power supply
· Footstep model
· Piezoelectric sensor
· LM2596 DC-DC Converter
· Voltage Sensor

· LED
· Battery
At present, electricity is the necessary part of the human life in daily activities and demand of electricity is increasing exponentially day by day. Modern technology requires a vast amount of power in the form of electricity for its different operations. Worldwide electricity generation contributes maximum in pollution as the single largest source. So in order to provide solution this problem. We proposed a system using piezoelectric sensors for power generation from footsteps and generated power is stored in the battery and we can see in the LCD display the generated power. In the future this can be done in large scale in order to generate more electricity.
