Power generation research using a variety of structure and machine vibrations is carried out in various institutions. Simultaneously, research with vibration suppression equipment is also being performed and there are numerous examples being put into practical use. This paper will describe a basic examination to determine the effectiveness of power generation and the attenuation effect when using a vibration power generator in a footbridge dynamic damper. Experiments were carried out with a power generation element to determine the basic characteristics of power generation and vibration using an electromagnetic induction-type power generation element. It was confirmed that voltage generation is almost proportional to velocity and the generated voltage has nearly no frequency dependency, while the effect of attenuation can be achieved by installing a resistor.
