Imagine a large sensor network sending back real-time data as an earthquake happens — something we saw last year using Raspberry Pi. That project used a Geophone as the detector, which could be ...

From the idea that there may be some relationship with these two things, this experimental earthquake detector was born. [Bob Davis] built this device, which uses an Arduino and several Hall ...

The term seismograph usually refers to the combined seismometer and recording device. The first known earthquake detector was invented in 132 A.D. by the Chinese astronomer and mathematician Chang ...

Recent earthquakes highlight the importance of being prepared. Smartphones now have built-in earthquake detection systems ...

Earthquake early warning detection is more effective for minor quakes than major ones. This is according to a new study from the United States Geological Survey. Seismologists modelled ground ...

It joins a series of recent advances in earthquake sensing, including smartphone apps and more affordable detection hardware. Earthquake activity is usually monitored by seismometers - carefully ...
