How to install piezoelectric in prosthesis foot


There are six sets of MFC Piezoelectric were
installed underneath the prosthesis foot.
This would use to harvesting power out
from the lower prosthetic legs.

How to put MFC piezoelectric on foot prosthesis


The movement of the prosthetic legs and
the foot prosthesis would generate energy
directly from PZT and MFC piezoelectric.
The integrated low loss full wave bridge
rectifier with a high efficiency buck
converter was designed to connect directly
to PZT and MFC piezoelectric.

How to put piezoelectric and hitting device together

The major limitations of harvesting the
energy from piezoelectric devices are not
only providing low power, but also the
difficulty to investigate their behaviour
when applying to some applications such
as prosthetic legs. Thus, the investigating
of the output voltage waveforms when hitting
the upper arm of the piezoelectric
PZT was shown.
