BeagleBone Remote Seismometer Node
''' Project aims to develop a working prototype of seismometer using Beaglebone. The device will have web based interface for control and data display. It will be further integrated with Quake Catcher Network (QCN).

Name
Beaglebone Remote Seismometer Node

Description
Earthquakes are one of the most devastating natural disasters we have today. Hence its very important to monitor the data which can be used to predict these earthquakes. Quake Catcher Network (QCN) is one such initiative. It provides sensors to the interested users to connect to their computers. Data recorded by the sensor is then sent to the servers using BOINC client software. This project aims to build such network using Beaglebone as the main controller hardware. In this way a complete independent system can be developed eliminating the need of user computer.
