1. A wave power generator system comprising:
a plurality of power generation assemblies;
an anchoring device;
each of the plurality of power generation assemblies comprising a floating head, a plurality of bidirectional rotary generators, and a mechanical linkage;
the mechanical linkage comprising a proximal linkage end, a distal linkage end, a linkage body, and a plurality of hinged joints;
the plurality of bidirectional rotary generators comprising at least one main generator and a plurality of supplemental generators;
each of the plurality of bidirectional rotary generators comprising a clockwise rotation turbine, a counterclockwise rotation turbine, and a generator body;
the distal linkage end being hingedly connected to the floatation head;
the proximal linkage end being hingedly connected to the anchoring device;
the plurality of hinged joints being operatively integrated along the linkage body, wherein each of the plurality of hinged joints is used to bend a specific point on the linkage body;
the plurality of hinged joints being distributed along the linkage body in between the distal linkage end and the proximal linkage end;
the at least one main bidirectional rotary generator being operatively mounted to the floatation head, wherein the at least one main bidirectional rotary generator is used to generate electrical energy from movement of the floatation head, and wherein the at least one main bidirectional rotary generator is used to generate electrical energy from water currents travelling past the floatation head;
each of the plurality of supplemental bidirectional rotary generators being operatively integrated into a corresponding hinged joint from the plurality of hinged joints, wherein each of the plurality of supplemental bidirectional rotary generators is used to generate electrical energy from movement of the corresponding hinged joint, and wherein each of the plurality of supplemental bidirectional rotary generators is used to generate electrical energy from water currents travelling past the corresponding hinged joint;
the clockwise rotation turbine and the counterclockwise rotation turbine being positioned opposite to each other about the generator body; and
a rotation axis of the clockwise rotation turbine and a rotation axis of the counterclockwise rotation turbine being positioned collinear to each other.
