Revibra

Kristine Lipinski - France
 

Creating a Light Object which has positive environmental effects led me to research energy sources not yet utilized by common technology. The unused and wasted expelled energy of certain consumption processes (factory steam, car exhaust, friction, etc.) led me to the possibility of harnessing the power of sound. Sound is one of the few types of energy sources that can be found everywhere in the world and in abundance.

The simplest way to gather sound waves is by utilizing a microphone. Microphones transform acoustical movements (the vibrations of air created by the sound waves) into electrical energy. A dynamic microphone operates like a miniature electric power generator. The fact that this pure mechanical system works shows how much energy the vibrations in the air can produce.

The design of the Revibra System reflects the need of its aesthetic form to function simply and in a recyclable manner. Its light-weight design and simple structure allows it to be installed in public areas and facilitate at a low-cost and ecologically friendly. With no negative impacts on the environment, Revibra goes one step further and can help to reduce large quantities of noise in places such as airfields and concerts by absorbing the sound waves for energy and deterring negative noise in the community. It is capable of controlling noise pollution as it recycles. Sound conversion could, and can be the future of green technology.
