New design of an ocean bottom seismometer (OBS)

Key Points

• The aim is to enhance the design of ocean bottom seismometers to improve seismic data collection.
• Developed a new sensor technology for improved data acquisition.
• Conducted field tests to evaluate the performance of the new design in marine environments.
• Compared data accuracy with traditional ocean bottom seismometers.
• Demonstrated a 30% increase in data accuracy compared to existing designs.
• Achieved a longer operational lifespan of up to 5 years without maintenance.
• Improved sensitivity to low-frequency seismic waves, enhancing detection capabilities.
