A Force Estimation Sensor System TestBed for Geological Phenomena Analysis based on Biomimetic

Abstract

Our work focuses, on designing and proposing a force estimation sensor system for Geological phenomena data collection and analysis, based on Biomimetic. In this sense, biomimetic term, is used, as proposed by Schmitt in its classical sense, with regatd to the study of nature’s methods, processes and mechanisms. In particular, strain gauge sensors with force sensing resistor (FSR), formate a clustering to estimate ground stress and tension levels, as stated by natures’ mechanisms in earthworms to detect electrical signals. Our sensor system is proposed as a testbed to estimate geological landslide phenomena. Our experimental results from the data collection system is conducted in LabVIEW.
