Abstract:
This paper presents different energy capture methods with application to the piezoelectric sensors. The piezoelectric material elements of sensors convert mechanical energy into electrical charges due to the direct piezoelectric effect. Collecting energy from the environment is a major area of interest to the development of unconventional renewable energy sources. Electrical energy is created in a way similar to the classic one. Different potential energy sources from the environment could be successfully used.
