If crowded sidewalks can generate power, Tokyo rush hour might secretly be the worlds most chaotic renewable energy plant.

Is this what they meant by ‘The Power of God and Anime on my side’?

If I swap the bed board for this thing, can I charge the camera while shooting an action movie? 👍

stealing calories from people walking translates to higher grocery costs. it would be far more cost effective to just use renewables that don’t disproportionately affect poor people.

These folks are harvesting our energy!!!!
What’s next? Mandatory walks everyday so the city gets powered?

I’m disappointed. I looked on google maps and Footsteps is in fact not in Japan

That’s… interesting. Reminds me of Solar roads, Fontus and Hyperloop.
Innovating™ their way around the laws of physics and entropy.

Again. EEVBlog had tons of videos debunking these kinetic walkways, solar roads, solar sidewalks.
They do not work.
They are a cost sink with negative return against tradition solar installation. Even a solar covered bike path or walk way is far more sustainable and higher energy return than a kinetic walkway.
This is someone’s get money for selling worthless boondoggle slush garbage.

Why don’t they just remove everyone’s feet, stick them onto a wheel and spin that. Seems more efficient
