New article: New app quake detector in your pocket read more at here http://www.spinonews.com/index.php/technology/item/3343-new-app-quake-detector-in-your-pocket

A new app developed by the university of Berkeley in seismological laboratory that detect the tremors and earth quakes. The app “My shake” in google store.  

Most used sensors already present in smartphones particularly accelerometers, three-axis motion sensors that keep track of orientation, or Global Positioning System, which gives the phone’s absolute position at any time. The first generation of the app will be predicting earthquakes and sending data to their central server so that we can verify what we are doing so that we can see all the materials.

 Scientists have created a new app to predict tremors by crowd sourcing phones as background quake detectors. My shake use that data to detect earthquakes by maintain the data in cloud. The new app helps in provide natural disaster early warning in locations that have no traditional seismic network places such as Nepal or India where we get very damaging earthquakes.

An early warning system along America’s earthquake-prone Pacific edge would be based on a prototype called Shake Alert now undergoing testing in California, Oregon and Washington. Once the app has proven reliable, natural disaster detection could trigger an alert to cellphone users outside ground zero, providing users with a countdown until shaking arrives.

A ground-based early-warning network called Shake Alert is now being developed and tested with hundreds of traditional seismic stations in California and the Pacific Northwest.

In the event of a natural disaster or an impending quake, your phone will notify you of it thanks to emergency services that will send out public text messages.
