“…For instance, Hyperdrive Corporation fabricated a small scale power generator composed of 1 g of DEG membrane; however, as illustrated by Chiba et al the bulk of the external electronics was significantly larger than that of the DEG. 117 The cost of electronics to support small scale applications such as heel-strike shoe and parasitic remote sensor generators presents a further challenge. 96 This highlights a crucial point; for the fundamental mechanism of DEG power generation to be scale invariant, equally scalable external electronics are required.…”

“…When a voltage difference is applied between the electrodes, they are attracted to each other by electrostatic forces, and it brings large thickness-wise contraction and plane-wise expansion with very high-speed response [1], [2]. In the previous works, pressure up to 8MPa, strain rate up to 380% and frequency of the motion more than 50kHz has been demonstrated [3].…”

“…Power generation ability is other important characteristic of dielectric elastomer [1], [2]. When the material is deformed, capacitance of material is changed.…”

“…The use of a DE actuator in the reverse mode, in which deformation of the elastomer by external mechanical work is used to generate electrical energy, is gaining attention [16][17][18][19]. Jean-Mistral et al [19] presented a DEG (dielectric elastomer generator) which generated a very small energy from human motion.…”
