Automatic Smart Speed Breaker Based On Day -Night Sensor and Power Generation

Abstract

Energy can neither be created or be destroyed and can only be transform from one form to another. The increasing demand for energy in urban environments necessitates innovative solutions to harness untapped energy sources and The increasing demand for energy in urban environments necessitates innovative enhance energy efficiency. The proposed energy-harvesting speed breaker (EHSB) system using piezoelectric plate & rack-and-pinion mechanism employs a mechanical-to-electrical energy conversion mechanism, transforming the kinetic energy generated by vehicles passing over speed breakers into electrical energy. The study includes the design, construction, and testing of a prototype of the power generation system using speed breakers.

The results of the study show that the EHSB system is a viable and sustainable method for generating electricity. The system is capable of generating significant amounts of energy. The speed breaker is used as it can function into two different uses such as for slowing of road vehicles and hence generating energy by harnessing applied force into electrical energy. The electrical energy produced can either be use to power up street lights or stored in a battery for emergency purposes.
