Abstract
In general, devices and systems for a tangentially actuated magnetic momentum transfer generator, and methods of use thereof, are provided. In an aspect, an electrical generator having a plurality of turns of wire forming a coil, a rotating magnet positioned in the coil, at least one stationary magnet positioned about the coil, and a slider movable relative to the rotating magnet in a direction tangential to an outer surface of the rotating magnet are provided. The slider can be configured to cause rotation of the rotating magnet, and the rotation of the rotating magnet and/or an interaction of the rotating magnet with a magnetic field of one or more of the at least one stationary magnet and the slider magnet can induce a voltage across a first terminal end and a second terminal end.
