About Us
Energy Harvesters LLC is commercializing a personal electronics mobile power source called the Walking Charger™. The Walking Charger allows users to charge the batteries in their mobile electronics devices anytime, anywhere – just by walking. You can charge your Smartphone battery by walking for just a single hour wearing the Walking Charger device. Nowadays, people depend on their portable electronic devices for information, entertainment, guidance and sometimes for survival. In those circumstances, running out of battery power is not an acceptable option. That is why Energy Harvesters created the Walking Charger to give people the ability to Charge Mobile Electronics Batteries Anytime, Anywhere™. The Walking Charger has powerful environmental appeal. It gives users personal electric power without depending on the grid and without the waste management problems associated with battery disposal or recycling. Accordingly, the Walking Charger will be an important gateway product that foreshadows the trend toward wearable electronics. Personal energy harvesting is not a new idea. Interest in the sector will continue to grow as the technology evolves. The Walking Charger has technological and practical superiority in terms of cost, power output, motion and reliability over other energy harvesting methods including dielectric elastomers, embedded electron charges, piezoelectrics and magnetos. We have one patent filed, citing 20 claims, and trade secrets in the design, fabrication, and integration of our technology. We prototyped device components, proved feasibility and reduced technical risk. We seek funding to produce a footwear-integrated demonstrator to establish development and supply contracts with the footwear brands. |
