Abstract
The following paper features the research and development of a feasible approach to maximizing the efficiency of energy generated from low ambient vibrations with the help of micro-components such as compression and extension springs made up of stainless steel, a thin film of diaphragm made up of Mylar plastic and NdFeB magnets, to be assembled on low cost plastic and metallic frame. The proposed system uses external vibrations produced from different noise sources and converts it to electricity by creating a synchronized oscillation cycle which has a frequency three times more than the external vibrations. It has been designed in such a way that it itself consumes no power and the components can be manufactured with little cost. Thus the cost of production of electricity, using this model, is comparatively less.
