Advanced Sensing for Geoscience and Exploration

There are many applications for inertial sensing, particularly, low frequency inertial sensing:

    • Geodesy, Gravimetry, Seismometry, quantum and fundamental physics, inertial navigation.
    • Some other applications are in mineral exploration, oil & gas but certainly, underwater navigation and detection of underground structures. They give you a gravitational signal that you can measure with the instruments sensitive enough at low frequencies.

Out of this, we are currently working on below projects:

GRAVITATIONAL WAVE DETECTION
