Off-Grid Electricity for Pacemakers: A Long-Term, Feasible Solution

This innovative solution aims to provide off-grid, sustainable electricity for pacemakers, eliminating the need for frequent battery replacements and multiple surgeries. By using a piezoelectric component, control device, and rechargeable battery, this system reduces the overall expenses and offers a permanent solution. Although mass production is currently unavailable, this concept shows promise for the future.

  1. Off Grid Electricity Production for Pacemakers GiladSerper Evyatar Cohen EleonoraDelfrate

  2. Who Needs Pacemakers? • Over 10,000,000 people have pacemakers • Every year, there are additional 1,000,000 new implants • The ages of the patients vary from over 60 for most patients to under 5 in extreme cases.

  3. Current Situation • Battery replacement is needed every 7 years on average • Multiple surgeries

  4. Our Idea • Off grid • Long term solution • Feasible in the near future • Not as expensive as you might think
