Kaleem-has done lots of research throughout the project and helped out on a lot.

Abdullahi-has been lazy at time but apart from that has worked hard and made the circuit really well.

Jahmiah-work really hard throughout the project and done a lot of work on the PowerPoint.

Mu’tasim-took a lot of pictures for the group and was their to help when needed.

Aamir-has worked hard and done work on the PowerPoint even though he has been absent a couple of time

Seismometer

A seismometer is a device for measuring the movement of the earth and consists of a ground motion detection sensor.

The spring and weight are suspended from a frame that moves along with the earths surface.

We first decided to find out information about seismometers and accelerometer but later we found out that seismometer and the accelerometer was not available to use so then we had to change to a tilt sensors.

Problems That were Encountered

A tilt sensor can measure the tilting in often two axes of a reference plane in two axes. In contrast, a full motion would use at least three axes and often additional sensors. One way to measure tilt angle with reference to the earths ground plane, is to use an accelerometer.
