MUMBAI, India, Jan. 7 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511104078 A) filed by Pranveer Singh Institute Of Technology, Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, on Oct. 29, 2025, for 'electrical energy generator using pressure with piezoelectric sensors and seebeck effect from change of temperature.'

Inventor(s) include Prof. Man Mohan Shukla; Mr Ritesh Dixit; Dr Shakun Srivastava; Mr Sarvesh Kumar Soni; Mr Sikhar Sahu; Mr Amir Khan; Mr Ashish Kumar Pandey; and Mr Kapil Khatri.

The application for the patent was published on Dec. 12, under issue no. 50/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "This innovation offers a modular, hybrid energy-harvesting floor tile that can concurrently produce electricity from ambient temperature gradients and human foot traffic. The system creatively combines the Seebeck effect and electromagnetic induction, two different energy conversion concepts By shifting strong magnets in relation to copper coils, a spring-loaded system transforms the kinetic energy from foot pressure into an alternating current. At the same time, a thermoelectric generator (TEG) module generates a constant direct current by taking use of the natural temperature differential between the colder tile base and the warmer walking surface. The collected energy is stored in an onboard battery or supercapacitor after being rectified, combined, and regulated by an integrated power management circuit. A more effective, dependable, and constant off-grid power supply that is appropriate for low-power applications in high-traffic locations is produced by this dual-generation system."
