Using Python for Embedded Systems Programming

⛧ on Instagram: "The Netherlands is using kinetic roads to convert vehicle traffic into electrical energy. These roads are embedded with piezoelectric crystals and induction coils that capture vibrations and pressure from car and bicycle tires. As vehicles pass over, their weight and speed create dynamic loads on the road surface. The road surface deforms slightly, generating mechanical stress. The built-in piezoelectric materials convert this stress into electrical energy, while electromagnetic

EcoClaws on Instagram: "In Japan, researchers are using smart walkways to turn everyday activities into clean energy 4. These roads are embedded with special piezoelectric material that can collect kinetic energy from pedestrians' footsteps. When people walk, run or jump, the road surface is slightly deformed, creating mechanical pressure. Piezoelectric crystals convert this pressure into electrical energy. This energy can be used to illuminate street lights, power public displays, and even moni
