MUMBAI, India, March 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641025635 A) filed by Iniya Aadharshini Mahibalan; and Monya Koteshwara, Bengaluru, Karnataka, on March 4, for 'integrated tri-modal energy harvesting system with multi-layer generation and core-shell nanomaterial modules.'
Inventor(s) include Iniya Aadharshini Mahibalan; and Monya Koteshwara.
The application for the patent was published on March 13, under issue no. 11/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The invention relates to a Tri-Modal Mechanical Energy Harvesting (TIME-H) system that converts ambient mechanical energy into electrical power using electromagnetic (EMG), Piezoelectric (PENG), and Triboelectric (TENG) transduction mechanisms. The system operates via two complementary embodiments. In a first embodiment, a single external mechanical stimulus concurrently drives the generators through a magnetically self-rebounding mechanism and an optimized stacked PENG/TENG arrangement, as shown in Fig. 1. In a second embodiment, CoFe2O4@BaTiO3 core-shell nanoparticles within a polymer matrix molecularly interact with the EMG's magnetic field, synergistically boosting conversion efficiency, as illustrated in Fig. 3. A power management circuit (PMIC) receives the outputs, utilizing Active Rectification for the low-impedance EMG and SSHI non-linear conditioning for the high-impedance PENG/TENG sources, providing a stable DC output for electronic loads or energy-storage elements. The system is intended for self-sustaining power applications."
