  • Sensor device having an impact surface
    Patent number: 10838091
    Abstract: A sensor device includes an elongated housing containing particle motion sensors spaced apart along a longitudinal axis of the elongated housing, where the elongated housing has a width. A second portion includes communication circuitry to communicate over a communication medium, the second portion coupled to the elongated housing and having a width that is greater than the width of the elongated housing. The second portion includes an impact surface that is above a top surface of the second portion, the impact surface to receive an impact force for deploying the sensor device into a ground surface. The second portion further includes a connector structure to mechanically connect the impact surface to the elongated housing.

  • LAND SEISMIC SENSOR DEPLOYMENT
    Publication number: 20150160356
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a driver, a guide and an actuator. The guide holds a seismic sensor device and directs the seismic sensor device along a predetermined trajectory. The actuator produces a force on the driver to push the seismic sensor unit into a ground surface according to the predetermined trajectory.
