In the past few decades, rotary energy harvesting has received more and more attention and made great progress. The energy harvesting device aims to collect environmental energy around electronic equipment and convert it into usable electrical energy, developing self-powered equipment that does not require replaceable power supplies. This paper provides a holistic review of energy harvesting techniques from rotary motion using piezoelectric materials. It introduces the basic principles of piezoelectric energy harvesting, the vibrational modes of piezoelectric elements, and the materials of piezoelectric elements. There are four types of rotational energy harvesting technologies: inertial excitation, contact execution, magnetic coupling, and hybrid systems. An overview of each technology is made, and then, a detailed analysis is carried out. Different types of rotating energy harvesting technologies are compared, and the advantages and disadvantages of each technology are analyzed. Finally, this paper discusses the future direction and goals of improving energy harvesting technology. This Review will help researchers understand piezoelectric energy harvesting to effectively convert rotational energy into electrical energy.
