Abstract
A pinion gear, with a varied gear ratio, can be inline with a rack. When the rack moves, the pinion gear can rotate. This rotation can cause an interior of an electrical generator to rotate. Rotation of the interior of the electrical generator can cause an electricity to be produced and outputted.

11. A system, comprising:
-
a pinion gear with a varied gear ratio; and a coupling mechanism configured to couple the pinion gear to an electrical generator, where when the pinion gear experiences a rotation, the coupling mechanism experiences a rotation and where the rotation of the coupling mechanism causes rotation of at least part of the electrical generator such that the electrical generator produces an electricity. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A method, performed by shoe insole, the method comprising:
-
receiving a pressure from a downward step; and moving a rack in response to the pressure from the downward step, where moving the rack causes a pinion gear with a variable gear ratio to rotate and where the rotation of the pinion gear causes a generator to rotate. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
