Abstract: Timely monitoring of abnormal vibration of machinery in highly harsh environments is essential to ensure the safe operation of mechanical systems. This paper uses a self-charging power module to harvest energy to provide sustainable power for monitoring multidirectional ultra-low frequency mechanical vibrations. The power generation unit consists mainly of a spherical electromagnetic triboelectric hybrid nanogenerator (SETE-HNG). It is equipped with advanced sensing functions to support deep learning to identify signals with different directions of vibration, different frequencies, and different amplitudes of vibration, thereby enhancing the high-precision perception function. The accuracy of the prediction results is as high as 98.6622%, 100%, and 99.3333%, respectively. A Power Management Circuitry (PMC) has been meticulously crafted to maximize the utilization of vibrational energy. It efficiently charges a 40 mAh lithium polymer battery to 3.3 V in just 26 min, all without the requirement of an external power source. This advancement facilitates self-powered Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking of vibrational signals. Moreover, the stored energy is harnessed to energize a microcontroller and a low-power Bluetooth module. This enables real-time monitoring of mechanical vibrations via a mobile phone. The design presented in this paper is a testament to the potential of self-powered multidirectional mechanical vibration monitoring, contributing significantly to the safety and efficiency of mechanical systems.
