RS&BOOM | Seismograph & Infrasound Monitor

Detect the shakes of the Earth and the infrasonic booms that bounce around our atmosphere, with the RS&BOOM. This seismo-acoustic monitor incorporates the seismograph features of the RS1D, with the infrasound capabilities of the RBOOM, giving you the best of both worlds.

Often the same source will produce both seismic signals that resonate through the ground, and infrasonic waves that travel through our atmosphere. With the RS&BOOM now you can record and explore the intriguing connection between these two data sets simultaneously.

This makes it possible to monitor seismic events and observe their vibrations move into the atmosphere (or vice versa), for example in the case of volcanic eruptions, avalanches, landslides and explosions. In addition, the infrasound sensor allows you to detect a huge number of other activities that a seismograph alone cannot measure. From incoming storms, planes flying overhead to auroras, bolides entering the atmosphere and even certain animal calls such as the elephants that roam the African Savannah.

The RS&BOOM combines a single vertical geophone velocity sensor with an acoustic pressure transducer (the infrasound sensor), digitizer, hyper-damper and computer. It is a powerful and portable all-in-one short period seismograph and infrasound monitor.

Our planet is full of wonder, and the RS&BOOM allows you to uncover some of its incredible events from a very unique perspective to see what is happening both above and below your feet.

All Raspberry Shake models are highly compatible, easily integrated into existing networks, and can be deployed rapidly. Find out what the experts are saying from multiple peer-reviewed articles about Raspberry Shakes.
