Abstract:
This device allows one to measure seismic activity from a hand-held device, in particular a mobile phone. A microfabricated whispering gallery mode (WGM) based seismometer operates in conjunction with an application installed on a mobile phone. By converting the sensor output from the seismometer, a measurement is performed by the application with a simple cross- correlation operation that requires low processing power.
