Harvesting energy with Piezo
Home: Italy
The Bánkirobot Team's project aims to address the energy crisis by developing a low-maintenance "piezo energy field" using piezoelectric materials to harness wind energy. Inspired by biomimicry, the project models a field of grass-like structures that generate electricity when moved by wind or passing vehicles. The generated energy can power sensors, controllers, or lighting without relying on the main power source. The project focuses on research, prototype development, and testing to create a cost-effective and sustainable energy solution for various applications, including emergency station

The members of the team study electronics at a technical school. We have been working in our school's maker team, which is called Bánkirobot, for a year. Previously, we developed a web application supporting school selection called FindMySchool.
