By hooking up a DC motor to a bicycle we can generate and harvest human powered energy, hooking up the DC motor to an invertor allows us to generate an AC current and 'juice' household appliances.

sustainable practices. raising awareness of projects people can do at home to create their own energy sources

taken over from last semesters 'team' (preston, andrew, josh) we reworked the configuration, replaced and remounted the motor, removed the belt and placed elements directly on the bike to harvest DC energy which we inverted to AC to fule everyday household appliances.

bikejus can be set up so anyone willing and able can try it out and see the visual data display and feedback immediately.
