Project description
ABOUT THIS PROJECT It is very well known that when putting a copper and a zinc rod into a potato, a voltage can be measured across the two rods, that is how the potato clock works. However we can take this idea further using a tree. As a tree has a higher volume than a potato, more energy can be transferred from the zinc to the copper. If multiple rods are used in a parallel combination in multiple trees, enough energy can be transferred to power an Arduino board. This is clearly an ideal way to produce energy, and literally one of the "greenest" forms of energy production causing…
