Artificial trees that generate electricity

<p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr">ArabiaWeather.com - Khitam Amer - Researchers from Ohio University, USA, are conducting several studies to generate electric power from artificial trees by exploiting the vibration that these trees are exposed to from the things surrounding them.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><br /><br /> The researchers show that buildings and bridges are not fixed objects, as is known, but rather move without our awareness, especially when they are exposed to winds or large trucks pass by them.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The idea of generating electricity from artificial trees, according to the researchers, is that the trees will work directly as soon as the wind blows to generate a limited amount of energy, then send it to nearby sensors to operate it, then the neighboring devices start their work by absorbing the vibrations resulting from any movement near them, and converting them into Electric energy and it may be strong vibrations such as the vibrations resulting from the movement of vehicles in the streets, and it may be light vibrations such as the vibrations of the movement of buildings resulting from the blowing of the wind.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> So far, the researchers have been able to generate 0.8 volts, which the researchers consider a source of optimism and hope for the use of clean and renewable energy more in the near future.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p>
