Abstract :
With the advancement in technology an exponential growth in the use of electricity driven gadgets and appliances can be witnessed. This places a huge demand on the Electricity Production and Management Organizations. Tremendous amounts of electricity are being produced every day although that does not suffice our demands. This extensive production of electricity is done at the expense of our natural resources which are exhaustive which calls for judicious usage of these resources. Looking for an alternative method of producing electricity is the urge of the present day. One more disadvantage of the conventional form of producing electricity is that it causes pollution. So, there is a need for a pollution-free, cost-efficient alternative for all our electricity demands. One such method is to use the electromagnetic waves present in air and convert them into electrical energy. These electromagnetic waves are always present in the air in the form of unused potential energy. This energy of electromagnetic waves can be transformed into electrical energy which can be further used to charge our mobile phones. A smart phone application can be used to notify the users of the availability of high frequency electromagnetic waves present in an area. It can also notify the user the amount of potential electricity that can be generated in a particular region. With the introduction of application based control of such system, the complexity of the process can be simplified to a great extent. An interactive interface will keep the users away from the know-how of the typical system and will just produce a very familiar interface with easy options to operate on. Hence, the concept can be commercialized and brought into the hands of each needful user.
