This document describes a study on generating electricity from speed breakers on roads. It discusses how the mechanical energy from vehicles passing over speed breakers can be converted to electrical energy. A prototype was created that connects a roller on the speed breaker to an AC motor via ball bearings and a coupling. As vehicles cause the roller to rotate, it turns the motor which acts as a generator to produce electricity. This electricity can be rectified and stored in a battery then used to power things like streetlights. The document provides details on the components used, calculations for estimated voltage output based on vehicle mass and speed, and diagrams of the system. It is concluded that this technique could help address power issues in a sustainable way.

In this project we are generating electrical energy by means of a non- conventional method just by walking on the footsteps. Non conventional system for energies are very much required at this time. Energy generation using footsteps requires no any fuel input to generate electricity. In this project we are generating electricity just with the help of rack and pinion arrangement along with alternator and chain drive mechanism.

In today’s world, Electric cars are gaining a great demand with increasingly new features established in them and rising demand of eco friendly status for each one of us. Electric cars which uses electricity to charge up their batteries; have replaced gasoline and diesel cars with features like high speed, less carbon emission, less maintenance, upto certain level with better mileage etc but brought a great disadvantage of a big threat to non-renewable electrical energy. So, in this paper, our focus is on charging electric cars via some source which exist in long and does not become costly i.e. vibrating energy which totally replaces electricity and uses vibrations present around us which are harvested economically. According to World Bank Report 4,50,000 vehicle passes from the busiest highways which produces plenty of vibrations. Thus here we are trying to use this vibration energy with piezoelectric transducers (which converts mechanical energy to electrical energy) with springs which finally results in electrical energy.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

ABSTRACT
Electricity in India, is a big problem which is faced by people who reside in the country. Electricity is the form
of energy, Electricity is a basic part of nature and it is one of our most widely used forms of energy. We get
electricity, which is a secondary energy source, from the conversion of other sources of energy, like coal, natural
gas, oil, nuclear power and other natural sources, which are called primary sources. Before electricity generation
began slightly over 100 years ago, we use kerosene lamps, and rooms were warmed by wood-burning or coal
burning stoves. Direct current (DC) electricity had been used in arc lights for outdoor lighting. In the late-1800s,
Nikola Tesla pioneered the generation, transmission, and use of alternating current (AC) electricity, which can
be transmitted over much greater distances than direct current. Generating electricity by speed breakers is
innovative and useful concept. Researches show that the world has already had its enough Shares of its energy
resources. Fossil fuels pollute the environment. Nuclear energy requires careful handling of both raw as well as
waste material. The focus now is shifting more and more towards the renewable sources of energy, which are
essentially, nonpolluting. Energy conservation is the cheapest new source of energy. The utilization of energy is
an indication of the growth of a nation. One might conclude that to be materially rich and prosperous, a human
being needs to consume more and more energy. And this paper is best source of energy that we get in day to day
life. This paper is presenting the study of electricity generation through the speed breaker mechanism.
Keywords - ac: alternating current, dc: direct current, generation, lead acid battery, speed breaker.
I. INTRODUCTION
Is anyone happy with current situation of
electricity in India. So, this is our small step to try to
improve this situation by our project. First of all what
does electricity mean to us??? Electricity- secondary
source of energy i.e. converted from other sources.
We need it for every small thing, still notice its
importance only during load shedding. Man has
needed the use energy at an increasing rate for his
sustenance and well being ever since he came on the
earth a few million years ago. Primitive man required
energy primarily in the form of wood. He derived this
by eating plants or animals, which he hunted.
Subsequently he discovered force and his energy
needs increased as he started to make use of wood
and other bio-mass to supply the energy needs for
cooking as well as for a keeping himself warm. With
the passage of time, man started to cultivate land for
agriculture. He added a new dimension to the use of
energy by domesticating and training animals to work
for him. For this project the conversion of force
energy is converted into electrical energy. In this
project we have tried to generate electricity through
speed breakers present on roads.
As we know that vehicles on road are
increasing day by day this will help us to generate
electricity. This electricity generated can be used for
different purpose such as lighting of signals and
streetlights on road etc. This set up requires very
basic mechanical components such as coupling of
motor shaft and speed breaker by using ball bearing.
There are also some electrical components such
battery, rectifier etc. The power is generated by the
motion of wheels over the speed breakers and due to
coupling of motor shaft and speed breaker
mechanism power is generated and can be supplied to
rural areas and many other places. In this model we
have been showed that we can generate voltage from
busy traffic. Conversion of their mechanical energy
into electrical energy used widely concept. It is a
mechanism to generate power by converting potential
energy generated by a vehicle going on up speed
breaker into rotational energy. We used that simple
technique to the project. When any vehicle moves it
on the roller then due to friction vehicle rotates the
roller. Electricity generates by the motor and that
generated voltage can connects to the bulb. In actual
practice, with the help of voltage we can charge the
batteries then we can use that voltage to light the
bulbs, etc. The second part of the project is an
efficient use of energy by using simple electronics.
We always see that road light continuously glow
whether vehicle are on path or not. We have
introduced this concept to avoid aware of light.

II. PROJECT DETAILS
1. Working principle
The bearing is provided in order to permit
the relative motion between the shafts. In this way
vertical motion is to be converted into rotational
motion. The one end of the shaft will be fixed with
the help bearing. The working of this speed breaker
arrangement for producing electricity is very simple.
The ball bearings are connected in one side of roller
in this project. At one side ball bearing is used to
make the linear and smooth rotation of roller. At the
second side synchronous AC motor has been
connected through mechanical coupling. As the roller
rotates because of vehicle motor also starts to rotate
due to which electricity is being produced. . The
speed breaker on a busy road will be lifted to some
height from one side and fixed to the road from other
side. Then there will be a shock absorber kind of
mechanism beneath the speed breaker
There are a large number of automobiles
running on the road. These automobiles go over a
number of speed breakers present on the road. The
vehicle is having a variety of weight like trucks,
buses, cars, and two wheelers therefore whenever
they are passing over a speed breaker a lot of energy
is wasted. So when the vehicle will come on the
speed breaker, electricity produced by motor which
acts as a generator because it get rotated linearly with
the speed breaker due to coupling of speed breaker
with motor shaft.
The generate voltage is in A.C. because the
motor is A.C synchronous motor and we can use it
into D.C by using bridge rectifier. This D.C. voltage
is stored to the lead 6-volt battery. The battery is
connected to the inverter. The inverter is used to
convert 6 volt D.C. to the 230 volt A.C. voltage is
used to activate the light fan etc. By increasing the
capacity of the battery and the inverter circuit the
power rating is increased. This arrangement is fitted
in highways; the complete arrangement is kept inside
the floor level except the speed brake arrangement.
Here we are making speed breaker, when a vehicle
crosses the speed breaker the speed breaker will
rotate on the basis of weight and the speed of the
vehicle. At the output of motor rectifier is connected
example bridge rectifier. That output of bridge
rectifier is given to the boost converter. Through
boost converter we can use the boosted voltage. That
output of boosted voltage is given to the application
which being implemented such as street light and
traffic light. The boosted voltage can also be given to
the battery to store the electricity. Through battery we
give supply to the port of microcontroller through
which traffic light operates. Then the output of the
battery is used to lighten the street lamps on the road.
Now during daytime we don’t need electricity for
lightening the street lamps so we are using a control
switch which is manually operated .The control
switch is connected by wire to the output of the
battery. The control switch has ON/OFF mechanism
which allows the current to flow when needed.
2. SCOPE OF PROJECT
India has huge source of non conventional
energy like huge coastal area, hilly areas and bright
sunlight uninterruptable. The effective utilization of
is useful in the development of nation non
conventional energy sources. The utilization of
energy is an indication of the growth of a nation. For
example, the per capita energy consumption in USA
is 9000 KWh (Kilo Watt hour) per year, whereas the
consumption in India is 1200 KWh (Kilo Watt hour).
One might conclude that to be materially rich and
prosperous, a human being needs to consume more
and more energy. A recent survey on the energy
consumption in India had published a pathetic report
that 85,000 villages in India do not still have
electricity. Supply of power in most part of the
country is poor. Hence more research and
development and commercialization of technologies
are needed in this field. India, unlike the top
developed countries has very poor roads. Talking
about a particular road itself includes a number of
speed breakers. By just placing a unit like the “Power
Generation Unit from Speed Breakers”, so much of
energy can be tapped. This energy can be used for the
lights on the either sides of the roads and thus much
power that is consumed by these lights can be utilized
to send power to these villages.
3. EQUIPMENTS USED
3.1 Roller
Speed breakers are used to slow down the
speed of vehicle by offering a resistance on wheels. It
is in strips in two to five numbers lying parallel to
each other on the road. It can be easily seen on
railway crossings. We can use number of the speed
breaker either to resist the vehicle or to get the more
electricity. Material of vehicle we can use wood,
steel, etc
3.2 Dimension of the speed breaker
Without assembly: 18 cm
With assembly: 22.5 cm
Hollow roller: 1.2cm height:0.875m
Height of speed breaker from road: 2 cm

Flash Memory, the voltage operating range is4.0V to
5.5V and Fully Static Operation is in between 0 Hz
to 33 MHz and it has Three-level Program Memory
Lock and RAM of 256 x 8-bit. It also has 32
Programmable I/O Lines & Three 16-bit
Timer/Counters. This microcontroller has Eight
Interrupt Sources and Full Duplex UART Serial
Channel. It has some another special features like
Watchdog Timer, Dual Data Pointer, Power-off Flag.
It works on two modes like Low-power Idle and
Power-down Modes and Interrupt Recovery from
Power-down Mode. Basically this microcontroller is
used to control the time or to give delay
programming of traffic signals.
3.4 Traffic signals
Traffic signals are used to control the
traffic.Traffic signals are used instead of traffic
police. It is used to minimize human efforts and
giving for reliable operation. It has three colors like
red, green and yellow. Traffic lights were first
installed in 1868 in London and are now used all over
the world. At those times red and green gas lamps
were used for night. The gas was turned with a lever
at its base so that the appropriate light faced traffic.
Traffic lights alternate the right of way accorded to
road users by displaying light of the standard color as
mentioned below-s
Red: To indicate stop the vehicles. Red signal
prohibit any traffic from proceeding.
Yellow: To indicate the vehicles can go within less
time so be in ready position. This light denoting
prepared to stop short of the intersection, if it is safe
to do so.
Green: To indicate the vehicle can go
according to their way. It allows traffic to produce in
the direction denoted, if it is safe to do.
3.4 Boost converter
Generated electricity has been converted
into D.C. by using rectifier. Boost converter is
basically used to boost that converted dc voltage as
per requirement. Efficiency, size, and cost are the
primary advantages of switching power converters
when compared to linear converters. Switching
power converter efficiencies can run between 70-
80%, whereas linear converters are usually 30%
efficient. The DC-DC Switching Boost Converter is
designed to provide an efficient method of taking a
given DC voltage supply and boosting it to a desired
value.
3.5 Motor
The basic principle of the generator is
Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction and in
this mechanical energy is converted into electrical
energy. The turning of a coil in a magnetic field the
magnetic flux changes through the coil and therefore
generates the voltage. Synchronous motors operate at
exactly synchronous speed regardless of load. They
can be adjusted to run at unity or leading power
factor. They require starting and excitation control
equipment that is more complicated than the starting
equipment generally used for squirrel cage motors.
III. INDENTATIONS AND EQUATIONS
The calculation is based on the mass and
speed of the vehicle. In our paper we are calculation
the voltage generation by considering mass of
vehicle. Below calculation shows the calculation
considering the prototype model. The calculations are
below:
Let us consider,
Assuming the mass of a vehicle moving over the
speed breaker = 1 Kg
Assuming the mass of the roller which are being used
= 2.5 Kg
The mass of a vehicle moving over the speed
breaker+ mass of the roller which are being used =1
Kg+2.50 Kg (Approximately) = 3.5 Kg
Height of speed brake = 2 cm
Work done=Force x Distance
Here, Force=Weight of the Body = 3.5 Kg x 9.81 =
34.33 N
Distance traveled by the body = Height of the speed
brake = 2 cm
Output power=Work done/Sec = (34.33 x 0.02)/60 =
0.011 volts (For One pushing force)
Power developed for 1 vehicle passing the speed
breaker arrangement for 1 minute = 0.011 volts
Power developed for 60 minutes (1 hr) =0.66 V
Power developed for 24 hours= 15.84 V
This power is sufficient to burn four street lights in
the roads in the night time.

V. CONCLUSION
The energy is an important input to sustain
industrial growth and standard of living of a country
can be directly related to energy consumption. The
conventional energy sources energy like coal, oil,
uranium etc are depleting very fast and by the turn of
the century man will have to depend upon non-
conventional sources of energy for power generation.
In this world where is shortage of electric power
supply, the project will be helpful to solve some of
the problems. Advantages of the electricity
generation by using speed breaker such as it is
Pollution free power generation; Simple construction,
mature technology, and easy maintenance; No
manual work necessary during generation; Energy
available all year round; No fuel transportation
problem; No consumption of any fossil fuel which is
nonrenewable source of energy; No external source is
needed for power generation; Less floor area; Easy to
install; No obstruction to traffic. Low budget
electricity production and Low initial cost & capital
cost therefore project is economical. Power
generation is simple and we can use Battery to store
generated power. No need fuel as an input. There are
some disadvantages of this modern technique such as
in this Selecting suitable generator is difficult.
Achieving proper balance of speed and torque is
difficult. We have to check mechanism from time to
time therefore High maintenance cost. It May not
work with light weight vehicle efficiently. It can rust
in rainy season. There are so many applications of
this technology. Power generation using speed
breaker system can be used in most of the places such
as in all highways, in all roadways Speed brake, to
charge the Batteries and using them to light up the
street, Traffic signals, Road Signals, Sign boards on
the roads. Generated electricity can be used for
Parking of multiplex, mall, toll booth, bus stops/ bus
stand for school and colleges airports for cinema
theaters, shopping complex.
This project can also be modified by using
camshaft and pulley, gears instead of coupling which
we have used in our paper which will reduce the
complexities and difficulties faced during the project.
Now, vehicular traffic in big cities is more, causing a
problem to human being. It has advantage that it does
not utilize any external source. Now the time has
come to put forte these types of innovative ideas, and
researches should be done to upgrade their
implication. It can be implemented at metropolitan
cities. So that more electric power is produced.
Arrangement of whole setup is easier. The stored
electricity could satisfy the daily requirement of
electric power. Since the arrangement is easier but
power transmission is not as costly as its setup.
Hence power can easily be transmitted. This project
is the one step to path of exploring the possibilities of
energy from several non conventional energy
sources.
