Abstract
A magnetic spring based energy harvester which includes a casing and a first retained magnet and a second retained magnet positioned within the casing. A levitated magnet is positioned between the first and second retained magnets and a spring assembly connected to the casing and the second retained magnet, wherein the spring assembly is configured to allow limited movement of the second retained magnet toward and away from the levitating magnet. Lastly, a conductive coil winding is positioned around the levitated magnet such that movement of the levitated magnet induces a current in the coil winding.
