Abstract:
A device for harvesting energy from fabric or clothing includes a piece of fabric or clothing. One or more piezoelectric harvesters are coupled with the piece of fabric or clothing. The piezoelectric harvesters are capable of producing electric energy in response to the movement of the piece of fabric or clothing. Additionally, the device includes one or more energy storage mediums coupled to the one or more piezoelectric harvesters. The energy storage mediums are capable of storing the energy produced by the one or more piezoelectric harvesters. Further, the method for harvesting energy from fabric or clothing involves moving a piece of fabric such that one or more piezoelectric harvesters generate electricity. The method for harvesting energy from fabric or clothing also involves storing the generated electricity in one or more energy storage mediums.
