Motion of the human body is capable to generate electrical energy with the support of suitable harvesting devices. This type of energy is very useful for those do not have access to the electrical power grid for prolonged duration. Biomechanical energy harvesting on this study will identify the most suitable joints to extract the optimum amount of energy without significant increase on human metabolic rate. Positive and negative energy from human lower extremity gait such as ankle, knee and hip for the young adult and elderly subjects are analyzed against the gait cycle during the walking phase on a flat surface. © 2017 IEEE. date: 2017 publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85048380271&doi=10.1109%2fROMA.2017.8231741&partnerID=40&md5=9d08b7d89280ee9dc5be2de6cafaec19 id_number: 10.1109/ROMA.2017.8231741 full_text_status: none publication: 2017 IEEE 3rd International Symposium in Robotics and Manufacturing Automation, ROMA 2017 volume: 2017-D pagerange: 1-5 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781538625392 citation: Gurusamy, N. and Elamvazuthi, I. and Yahya, N. and Parasuraman, S. and Khan, M.K.A.A.
