This project introduces the usage of a piezo sensor, also known as a pressure sensor, which converts kinetic energy into electrical energy. Today, the majority of the world's energy is derived from non-renewable sources such as coal, oil, and gas. This overreliance on traditional energy sources adds to environmental issues including air pollution, global warming, and climate change. This project primarily involves the installation of a foot platform. Piezo sensors are mounted beneath the platform to generate voltage from footsteps. The sensors are positioned in this configuration to achieve the maximum possible output voltage. Following that, this is sent to our monitoring circuitry. Following that, this is sent to our monitoring circuitry. The system, which employs a microprocessor to monitor voltage and charge a linked battery, allows the user to keep track of the voltage. An LCD panel also displays the charge that was generated. It also contains a USB charging connector for cell phones, where users may connect cables to recharge their devices' batteries. Thus, we charge a battery with electricity from the user's footsteps, show it on an LCD using a microcontroller circuit, and enable mobile charging through the setup. Based on the simulation, the project successfully produced an LCD output and voltage from the piezo sensor output, which met the project's initial expectations
