Embedded system development for Tsunmi detection

Abstract

A low cost Tsunami detection system can be implemented to detect the occurrences of tsunami at significantly smaller laboratory scale. The implementation of the system is based on the principle of vary in water pressure and temperature at the time of occurrence of Tsunami. The water pressure at the bottom of the ocean can be measured using a capacitive pressure sensor which can be analysed using embedded system. The experimentally recorded response from the Spartan 3E FPGA board and the microcontroller gives an indication as well as a prediction of water pressure at remote place for the detection of water turbulence.
