Bionic Soldier Power (Army)

Abstract

Tests an energy harvesting system that converts soldier’s leg movement into 12+ watts of power for the soldier on the move. The power is used to charge the soldier’s equipment batteries, thus significantly reducing the weight of batteries carried and the need to swap batteries, while extending mission time in any operational environment.
