Smart Energy Harvesting Evaluation Kit
This development kit consists of a simple desktop shaker with a suitable power amplifier unit, several MFC generator structures and 3 electronic modules with different harvesting and conditioning circuits. It enables scientists with mechanical and electrical engineering background to study the relations between mechanical input parameters and electrical outputs. The excitation for the harvester can be applied either using an internal sine wave generator or alternatively, a sampled signal from a real environment supplied to the 0dB external source input.
