CCAT pedal powered TV 2024
Abstract
The pedal powered TV itself is a stationary recumbent bike that is connected to a generator to convert mechanical energy to electricity. It was first built and created in 1998 for the Campus Center for Appropriate Technology (CCAT) and redesigned in 2010. In the latest state of the pedal powered TV system, the TV was no longer being powered by pedaling no matter how hard one pedaled, indicating an electrical issue. CCAT Pedal Powered TV 2024 is a project with the objective to redesign and improve the 2010 version.
