Abstract: The objective of this project is to design, build and be able to present a mechanism that will produce ac power using the mechanical energy produced by a person pedalling a standard bicycle. Also we would like to be able to show the user and the audience the advantage of using fluorescent bulbs, and in doing so, make more conscience of energy saving products. The crucial part of this project is being able to take the variable DC voltage that is produced by the variable pedalling speed and converting it to a stable 12V DC output that can be converted to AC power through an inverter.
