VOLTS GENERATED

Congratulations, Josh!

Turning pressure into power, one crystal at a time

The Experiment

Piezoelectric crystals generating voltage across a surface under pressure — proving that mechanical stress can be harvested as electrical energy.

The Achievement

16 volts of clean, pressure-generated electricity. Low amperage, high potential — literally the foundation of energy harvesting technology.

🚀

The Future

Sidewalks that power streetlights. Dance floors that charge phones. Roads that generate electricity. Josh is helping build that future.

Try It Yourself!

The piezoelectric effect was discovered in 1880 by Jacques and Pierre Curie. 145 years later, Josh is still pushing the boundaries of what's possible.
