The principles of multi-directional wideband piezoelectric vibration energy harvesters are introduced in this paper. The structures and their characteristics of several traditional and newly developed piezoelectric energy conversion elements used in the vibration energy harvesters are presented, such as Unimorph/Bimorph, Rainbow, Wrinkled and Cymbal type. Afterwards, two research fields of multi-directional and wideband vibration energy harvesting to improve the environmental adaptability are introduced, along with their recent research advances at home and abroad. For wideband vibration energy harvesting, such methods as bandwidth broaden and resonance frequency tuning are elaborated, and for the other field, three structures, namely, nonlinear magnetic coupling, cube-sphere and dandelion-like structure are demonstrated. Finally, the trend of development of the multi-directional wideband piezoelectric vibration energy harvesting technology is prospected.
