Development of energy harvesting sources for remote applications as mechatronic systems

This paper deals with a complex energy harvesting system which generates electric energy from its surroundings. The source of an ambient energy can be available in the form of solar, thermal or mechanical energy. The paper is focused on the energy harvesting from mechanical energy of vibrations. The mechatronic approach was used for development of the energy harvesting source which harvests electrical energy from ambient mechanical vibrations.
