        abstract = {This project presents an innovative and eco-friendly system for generating electrical energy by harnessing the mechanical energy from human footsteps. The system utilizes the piezoelectric effect, where piezoelectric sensors convert applied mechanical pressure into electrical energy. This generated energy is conditioned, rectified, and stored in a rechargeable battery. An Arduino microcontroller is employed to monitor the generated voltage via a voltage sensor, and the output is displayed on a 16x2 LCD I2C display. The system provides a sustainable method of power generation, particularly suited for high-footfall public areas such as railway stations, shopping malls, temples, and educational institutions, contributing to renewable energy solutions and smart city initiatives.},
