Abstract

There is provided a three-dimensional triboelectric energy generator comprising: a moving object; at least two triboelectric energy generator modules defining at least two planes respectively, wherein the moving object is disposed between the least two planes; and at least two elastic members configured to couple the moving object to the at least two triboelectric energy generator modules respectively, wherein a movement of the moving object allows each of the at least two triboelectric energy generator modules to generate a triboelectric energy.
