In the Doctoral Thesis, the generation of electrical energy from involuntary human movements, known as energy harvesting, is researched. The Thesis studies the individual components of the implementable power source based on their mutual compatibility. The insights and results of the research are practically combined to improve the performance of the created low-power source and evaluate it experimentally in realistic conditions. For that, an environmental parameters measurement system has been created, which adjusts consumption to adapt to the variable energy availability.
