are one of the quickest activities in human life. Every footstep activity at the crossing space, office, retail center, lecture building, or market area generates enormous amounts of kinetic energy in pressure force terms. These human steps can be used to power some low voltage loads as an alternative energy source that has yet to be fully exploited. Enough voltage is generated to charge a battery or a mobile phone. When these small efforts are added together, they can save enough energy in our society. In this study, a prosthetic limb shoe with piezoelectric transducers is designed and executed to generate electrical pulses by energy of the amputee footsteps (prosthetic lower limb). Lead Zirconate Titanate piezoelectric transducers were employed in this work. A piezoelectric shoe made up of 6 piezoelectric transducers product about 68.4 V AC output voltage. The average output voltage and power generated is (62.37 V, and 0.0504 watt/10 footsteps) respectively. We conclude that when this piezoelectric generator is placed with several shoes, it may generate more power, allowing us to gather this energy more efficiently. And also, in order for amputees to feel that they are not a burden on society, but rather they are an active part in building this beautiful world.

They are attempting to focus on several strategies for converting vibration energy to electric energy in this study, and discuss different forms of power harvesting techniques that will eventually provide us with electrical energy that can be used to power a variety of electronic appliances [1]. In this paper they are representing the methodology of electrical power generation using human footstep. This is about how we can generate electricity using human’s waste foot energy and applications for the same [2]. This work describes a low-cost, high-performance generator based on a hybrid technique that converts mechanical vibration into electrical power using polymethyl methalcrylate and electrodeposited foil using Faraday's law of magnetic induction [3]. This paper models, describes, and investigates friction induced vibration (FIV) and its use for energy generation using a two-degree-of-freedom (2-DOF) piezoelectric linked structure [4]. The major goal of this study is to propose a versatile testing platform for characterization and evaluation of piezoelectric devices in terms of energy harvesting. The energy from mechanical vibrations, which are provided by many types of equipment and mechanical structures, is converted to electrical energy via power harvesting methods [5]. The effects of structure-property correlation on fish-skin-based sustainable energy production are examined in this paper. The designed energy harvester functions as a sensor that interacts with human body components to track physiological signals in real time [6]. The design and experimental validation of a beam-roller piezoelectric energy harvester that can scavenge energy from both sway and bi-directional vibrations are described in this work. A piezoelectric cantilever beam, a roller, and a frame make up the beam-roller harvester [7]. This paper focuses on and discusses the generation and storage of electrical energy using piezoelectric materials. This type of material can convert mechanical energy directly into electrical energy, which can then be stored using an energy harvesting technique or circuit. The conversion of energy from ambient vibration is a promising study field currently [8]. Proposing a piezoelectric generator prototype that captures mechanical vibrations energy accessible on a staircase in this context. The embarked piezoelectric transducer, which is an electromechanical converter, generates electricity through mechanical vibrations [9]. The purpose of this review is to introduce and assess the technological advancements. First, the advantages of using piezoelectric energy conversion technology are identified by comparing the three
