Abstract: A piezoelectric shoe is a type of footwear that integrates piezoelectric materials within its sole andheel to generate electricity from mechanical pressure. These materials produce electrical energywhen compressed by the wearer's movement, converting kinetic energy into usable electrical power.This energy can then be harnessed to power electronic devices or charge batteries, offering asustainable energy solution. The technology holds significant potential for applications in variousfields, including sports and fitness tracking, military operations, and emergency response systems.As wearable technology continues to evolve, the piezoelectric shoe stands out as an innovative wayto tap into the body's natural energy. By transforming the mechanical energy produced fromwalking or running into electricity, it provides an efficient means of energy harvesting. This abstracthighlights the core functionality, potential benefits, and future applications of piezoelectric shoes,demonstrating how they could revolutionize energy harvesting in wearable devices.
