Success of the number of passengers who passed the number of people who passed by a frictional power generation mat exhibited the system on the Tokyo Big Sight

　Kansai University (Suita City, Osaka Prefecture) Faculty of Systems Science and Engineering, which is working on the number of passengers using a frictional power generation mat, and the Toyo Aluminum (Osaka City) and the Survey Research Center (Arakawa -ku, Tokyo).The group has announced that it has measured the number of steps by the power generation power of the frictional generator and confirmed that wireless transmission is possible.Professor Tani and his colleagues have developed a thin film and a generator consisting of electrodes, using static electricity generated by friction.By placing this generator under the mat and supplying power to the wireless transmission module via a power control circuit, the number of steps passed on the mat was succeeded in displaying the number of steps on the monitor.Visualization of congestion is required in various places due to corona evil.The method of utilizing camera and artificial intelligence (AI) has already been practical, but this study has proved that it will be possible to respond to places where the camera cannot be used.It is also useful for detecting trespasses.The passing system measurement system will be exhibited at the Tokyo Sports Industry booth of the "New Functional Material Exhibition 2022" held at Tokyo Big Sight on January 26-28.
