Most of us waste major portion of our energy in walking, jumping, running doing work. Also we always search for chargers and batteries for our mobile phone and other accessories when we need it most and when charge drains.

Why dont we implant a min charger at the sole of our shoes, that generates charge out of compression plates held apart by spring loading? This would give a cushoning effect while we walk and at the same time would generate charge that could be used to charge small rechargable batteries, attached to the sole of the shoe, or be held in a charger tied to our ankle or calf, using a band and connected by wire from the charger under the sole.

Surely, the daily walking we do and during times we go to remote places for treking or picinc, this would come handy in charging any small gadgets that otherwise would be difficult to find a plug point.

Also, most of us have the habbit of shaking our legs when idling. This as well could be used to generate charge during wait hours in lobby or airports to backup laptop batteries or any mobile phone batteries.
