Generate Electricity From Dance Floor Project

The dance floor uses piezoelectrics to collect the power.

Generate electricity from dance floor project.

A dutch company called energy floors has invented a product that turns club patrons into portable generators. Its sustainable dance floor uses the movement of dancers to light up the ground beneath their feet. In this project we are fabricating the concept of producing power from dance floor in hotels discotheques etc. A new sustainable experience is born.

The 12v output can light leds as in the sustainable dance floor or a lighted walkway power an external low voltage device or charge a battery. Rotterdam based company energy floors uses an electromechanical system to turn kinetic energy into electricity. This project consists of the following parts spring dynamo gear arrangement battery control unit and rack pinion. We use the generated electricity on the.

Each floor module can produce up to 35 wp of sustained output. Through this process the floor interacts with the public and involves them in a unique and interactive energy experience. The current is collect by. The company s sustainable dance floors are tiles that generate electricity when they re.

The dance floor can also give feedback to other systems that use electricity such as the sound system motivating the dj to outperform his herself by responding to the energy generated by the crowd. As clubgoers dance electricity producing crystals under the floor are compressed producing a small current. This kinetic energy is directly converted into electricity. Generating dance floor converts the movement of the dancing crowd into electricity and uses this power to change the appearance of the floor s surface.

Our story starts in 2008 when we open the world s first sustainable dance club and let partygoers loose on our energy generating dance floor. The energy that is generated by the movement of the dancers on the floor can be used to power everything from led lighting installed in the floor itself to external powering of small appliances. A thrilling tech innovation that turns clubbers movement into electricity and make them happy in the knowledge that they are generating energy while they party. It only requires maintenance which is to be provided by the owner.

Put a few at each shopping mall and you have a playground that lets kids burn off their excess energy and turn it into electricity. Blocks that light up when activated entice people to step on them. The interactive light show was designed to raise awareness of the potential of kinetic energy and has proved popular for corporate and public events but they have since developed a new product with more practical benefits. The dancer uses human movement as a source of energy.
