Piezing Amanda Parkes, Adam Kumpf

Piezing
Piezing is an outfit which generates power using the natural gestures of the human body in motion. Around the joints of the elbows and hips, the garment is embedded with piezoelectric material elements which generate an electric potential in response to applied mechanical stress. The electric potential is then stored as voltage in a centralized small battery and later can be discharged into a device.
