Vibration Energy Harvesting is being investigated for autonomous sensors and actuators that mainly utilize ambient and machine induced vibrations. Recently mechanical motion amplification is incorporated for improving power to weight ratio of vibration harvesters. The present study is motivated to investigate mechanical motion amplification characteristics with different configurations. The parameters investigated are motion amplification ratio, force transmissibility characteristics, weight of the electrical generator, effective damping coefficient achieved and linear nature of damping. Numerical analysis has been performed to compare important characteristics of device operating without amplification to that of with amplification with different configuration. The study has been concluded with comments on application of suitable type of amplification mechanism depending on weight/space constraints and desired effective damping coefficient.

Motion Amplification® to metoda przetwarzania wideo, która wykrywa najmniejszy ruch i wzmacnia ten ruch do poziomu widocznego gołym okiem. W procesie tym światło jest dekodowane w celu pozyskania informacji wskazującej na ruch, nawet jeśli jest on zbyt mały, aby kamera mogła go wykryć zwykłymi metodami. Proces obejmuje użycie kamery Iris M™. Jest to kamera wideo wysokiej rozdzielczości i wysokiego zakresu dynamiki, w której każdy piksel staje się niezależnym czujnikiem tworzącym miliony punktów danych w jednej chwili. Zasada działania systemu Iris M™ wraz z kluczowymi funkcjami zostanie wyjaśniona na podstawie studium przypadków, w których Iris M™ można wykorzystać np. w kwestiach strukturalnych, montażowych, rozruchowych oraz typowych uszkodzeń maszyn. Inne, często występujące przypadki użycia również zostaną omówione w dalszej części opracowania.

Motion Amplification® is a video-processing method that detects subtle motion and amplifies that motion to a level visible to the naked eye. The process decodes the light to pull out the information that is indicative of motion, even if it is too small for the camera to detect with normal methods. The process involves the use of the Iris M™ camera, a high definition and high dynamic range video camera where every pixel becomes an independent sensor creating millions of data points in an instant.

Energy harvesting shock absorbers can generate about 15-20 W of electric power for normal suspension velocities. However, higher weight, fail safe characteristics and space limitations have restricted development of regenerative shock absorbers to research prototypes. Power to weight ratio of regenerative shock absorbers can be improved by incorporating motion amplification. In the presented work, an innovative design of energy harvesting shock absorber has been presented that uses motion amplification for improving harvesting efficiency. Apart from improving electric power, the proposed solution is fail safe and can be easily incorporated in existing vehicles with only marginal change in suspension layout. Study includes detailed numerical analysis for vibration transmissibility to investigate comfort and safety. Further, a prototype has been fabricated and experimentation has been performed to compute electric power generated and comfort. Simulations have been performed on real size model with utilization of harvested electric power which indicates about 19% of overall harvesting efficiency.
