Earthquake monitoring and warning system

The project aims at designing an earthquake monitoring and warning system that is capable of detecting earthquakes as well as warning people to take necessary precautions. This system will not only attempt to save human lives, but will also store the data for later use by professionals working at this sector. The objective of this project is to design a LabVIEW based control system by collaborating MEMS accelerometer sensor with Arduino microcontrollers in a ZigBee wireless network. The system also has telecom VAS capabilities to alert people and control machines. Existing earthquake systems are moreover designed for aftershock management and they hardly deal with real-time data. However, this system is mainly designed to react as soon as the sensor nodes come across a p-wave.
