Pressure Sensor Based Tsunami Detection System: A Laboratory Study

In this paper, we present the study and implementation of a low-cost system to detect the occurrences of tsunami, at significantly smaller laboratory scale. The implementation is easily scalable for real-time deployment. Information reported in this paper includes the experimentally recorded response from the pressure sensor giving an indication as well as an alarm at remote place for the detection of water turbulence similar to the case of tsunami. It has been found that the system developed works very well in the laboratory scale.
