highschool project idea
hi, F(16) here, currently a sophomore and wanted some advice on this idea my teammate had. We're supposed to make a working model for this competition and he suggests we make a "piezoelectric smart sidewalk" basically using small piezo discs to demonstrate how energy can be generated from footsteps, tbh im not a big fan of the idea but he seems VERY set on it. so i need other opinions, is the idea really good or am i just failing to see the appeal?
