Study of a Pendulum in Vivo Electromechanical Generator to be Used in a Knee Prosthesis

Year: 2012

Type: article

Abstract: This paper presents the principle and the energy potential of an original electromechanical generator that uses human body natural motions during walking, in order to create an autonomous generator. This in vivo and noninvasive system is intended to be used in intelligent knee prosthesis. As the combined human, mechanical, and electrical phenomena are very significant, a mechanical and an electrical study are then carried to evaluate the recoverable power.
