Abstract: We need energy for every day today work of our life. There are many conventional methods of energy generation but these are depleting very fastly hence non-conventional energy system is very essential at this time to our nation. So an alternate method of non conventional energy generation is proposed in this project. In this project we are generating electrical power as non-conventional method by simply walking or running on foot step.Here Dynamometer is used for converting mechanical energy into electrical energy. The voltage generated by this sensor is stored in battery which will be later on transmitted wirelessly to charge the mobiles.
Distributed energy resources (DER) based micro grid and Nano-grid framework is most technically viable bottom-top approach to sustainably meet ever-increasing demand of rural and urban communities. Recently the growth of DC operative home appliances like mobile and lap top chargers, ovens and hair dryer’s etc. are increasing and therefore a DC/DC converter is an efficient way to meet the electricity need from the local DER and helps in improving the system efficiency. This paper presents simulation results of a buck boost converter, MPPT algorithm (P & O method) for solar PV module and closed loop PI control system for obtaining constant 12 V and 24 V DC output voltage at DC bus. The proposed methodology is to extract maximum DC power from solar PV system and it is directly fed to DC load or DC Nano grid.
Intelligent Electric Power Management Using Zigbee with Advanced Metering Inf...Akbar Badusha
This project mainly focuses on reduction of power cut and power theft. The main reason for the power cut is shortage of power in the generation unit. We can rectify this problem through our project.
Whenever the generation falls behind a particular limit (it is set initially by EB) the power management system will automatically switched on. Power will be supplied to only the basic necessary equipment (as stated in the priority list) power to other load will be stopped so that huge amount of power can be saved without power cut.
In our project, this is achieved using NS2 software and using ZIGBEE. Whenever generation falls below the particular value, then the load will be automatically switched off based on priority. And it can also be done through an interrupt. Through ZIGBEE command the interrupt will be sent to microcontroller to cut the power to the particular load.
When microcontroller receiving the command, the relay will cut the power to the equipment. So the power will be saved.
In this project,the method to detect and to control the power theft is also stated. Other methods of power theft like damaging, by passing electrical power meter can also be detected and can be punished.
Man power can also be reduced. The power usage of the customer will be automatically updated in the EB station so there is no need of man power to take meter reading in the user side. After every two months the reading will be automatically resetted.

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.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

2. Abstract
The utilization of waste energy of foot power with human locomotion is
very much relevant and important for highly populated countries like
India and China where the roads, railway stations, bus stands, temples, etc.
are all over crowded and millions of people move around the clock. And
With about 300 clear, sunny days in a year, India's theoretically calculated
solar energy incidence on its land area alone, is about 5,000 trillion
kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year The solar energy available in a year exceeds
the possible energy output of all fossil fuel energy reserves in India.
In this project we are generating electrical power by non-conventional
method by simply walking or running on the foot step and by solar panels.
Use of embedded technology makes this system efficient and reliable.

12. Invertor and ADC
A power inverter, or inverter, is a device or circuitry that changes direct
current (DC) to alternating current (AC).
The ADC0808 data acquisition component is a monolithic CMOS device
with an 8-bit analog-to-digital converter,8-channel multiplexer and
microprocessor compatible control logic.
The ADC0808 offers high speed, high accuracy, minimal temperature
dependence, excellent long-term accuracy and repeatability, and consumes
minimal power.
13. Voltage sampler
In electronics, a sample and hold (S/H, also "follow-and-hold") circuit is
an analog device that samples (captures, grabs) the voltage of a
continuously varying analog signal and holds (locks, freezes) its value at a
constant level for a specified minimum period of time.
They are typically used in analog-to-digital converters to eliminate
variations in input signal that can corrupt the conversion process.
A typical sample and hold circuit stores electric charge in a capacitor and
contains at least one FET (field effect transistor) switch and at least
one operational amplifier . To sample the input signal the switch connects
the capacitor to the output of a buffer amplifier.
The buffer amplifier charges or discharges the capacitor so that the voltage
across the capacitor is practically equal, or proportional to, input voltage.
14. Solar Panels
Solar panel refers to a panel designed to absorb the sun's rays as a
source of energy for generating electricity or heating.
This process uses semiconductors which when excited by the photons,
release a free electron that is then lose to flow as current.
silicon solar cells can reach efficiencies of around 18%
and more expensive space grade solar cells made from triple junction
gallium arsenide can reach about 32% efficiency in production models.
15. Piezoelectric effect
A piezoelectric sensor is a
device that uses the piezoelectric
effect to
measure pressure, acceleration,
strain or force by converting
them to an electrical signal.
The piezoelectric effect was
discovered in 1880 by two
French physicists,
brothers Pierre and Paul-
Jacques Curie, in crystals of
quartz, tourmaline, and Rochelle
salt . In Greek work piezein,
which means "to press.“
16. working
The power from solar panels is rectified and
smoothened to be stored in rechargeable battery and
so is for piezoelectric transducers.
When supply is cut we use the power stored in battery
or on a sunny day we use solar power or on a crowded
day we use piezo-electric power as our main aim is to
economize power.
The LCD is used do display the output voltage at the
load or battery
we will have power during power cuts and faults also.
17. Advantages
No green house gases.
Decentralization of power or being self-reliant .
Solar energy avoids politics and price volatility (no tension of
current bills).
Saving eco-systems and livelihoods (no use of raw materials).
Supplying additional power to grid may be paid.
The whole system is rugged so carefree and maintenance free life
(solar panels have 30 -40 years warranty and piezo devices are very
tough).
Other advantages of piezo devices are condition , structural health ,
data monitoring and transmission , product monitoring such as
sensors in machines.
18. conclusion
The project “
” is successfully tested and implemented which is the best
economical, affordable energy solution to common people.
This can be used for many applications in rural areas where power
availability is less or totally absence.
As India is a developing country where energy management is a big
challenge for huge population. By using this project we can drive
both A.C. as well as D.C loads according to the force we applied on
the piezo electric sensor.
By observing India large population and crowded places, and also
with above 300 sunny days an year this project would be a perfect
solution to clear india’s energy deficit.
