| description | In this work, a human–machine interface with energy harvesting capabilities was developed and a modular floor made of tiles equipped with piezoelectric elements was produced. The developed platform was tested as a position-tracking system for a human user, allowing the tracking of the lower body in a virtual reality environment. Moreover, the energy collected by the device was evaluated. |
