Saludos from Panamá!

For hobbyists among us, we have an announcement that will interest you. We
have started a new labor of love and developed a personal / educational
short-period seismograph on Kickstarter called Raspberry Shake
<http://kck.st/2a1bCPf>.

This new seismograph is for local and region seismicity, we like to think
of local is how far you can walk in a day and regional is how far you can
ride a bicycle in a day. The Raspberry Shake has a single vertical 4.5 Hz
geophone electronically extended to 0.5 Hz (2 seconds) with an 18-bit
digitizer that outputs 50 Hz miniSEED data.

Once the owner has selected the sharing option they will have to input the
lat/long/elev then the seismograph will enter into an active mode (as
opposed to the normal seiscomp passive mode) and will send info to a server
that will then server seedlink data.  That way you would only have to
access one server to get all of the channels you might be interested in.
The SCNL will be Axxx.SHZ.AM.00 where the xxxx are the last four characters
of the Raspberry Shake mac address.  AM is a registered network with IRIS
and SHZ is the proper channel name.

As SeisComP users, we thought it was important to make Raspberry Shake is
100% SeisComP compatible. It talks SeedLink and the inventory information
is provided in dataless, fdsnxml and sc3xml formats. So now you can play
with SeisComP at home too or even integrate your personal seismograph into
your institute's SeisComP system.

We think the Raspberry Shake is ideal for hobbyists, tinkerers and
educators.  To date there are over 200 backers!


Regards,

Branden and Angel
