Technologies

  • Wind > Humdinger's Wind Belt Economizes Low Wind Harnessing - Invented by Shawn Frayne, the Windbelt is a taut membrane fitted with a pair of magnets that oscillate between coils. Designed for low wind speeds and budgets, the device is 10x to 30x times more efficient than the best microturbines, and its cost is proportionately small.
  • Tiny Generator Runs Off Vibrations - Researchers at the University of Southampton, UK, have developed an efficient, sugar-cube-sized electric generator that feeds on environmental vibrations, via the wobbling of several magnets attached to a millimeter-sized cantilever. The device could power small, low-power devices such as wireless sensors or medical implants.
  • Wireless Bridge Sensors Powered by Bridge Vibrations (http://www.newswise.com/articles/view/534426/?sc=dwhp) - Clarkson University researchers have developed technology that uses vibrations caused by traffic to power wireless bridge monitor sensors. Electromagnetic generators harvest the natural vibration frequencies of the bridge, resonated each time a car or a truck passed over, even in a different lane. (NewsWise; Oct. 17, 2007)
