A brief review of some energy harvesters including improvements in their power conversion systems: Roadways and road speed bumps

TL;DR: In this article , a brief review of the power magnitudes that some energy harvester technologies can extract at sites such as roadways and road speed bumps was provided. But the results showed that the power magnitude achieved by the harvesters at the sites under study are sufficient to meet the power demand in devices with low-power electronics such as wireless sensors, data loggers, and data transmitters.
