Earthquakes are quite common in different parts of the world. In fact, even in Spain there are areas that are seismically active in which there are usually small earthquakes from time to time.
A much more complete earthquake detection system
In Asia earthquakes tend to be much more frequent. Xiaomi mobiles have a system that warns you of an earthquake minutes before it occurs, but it seems that for the company this functionality is not enough and it wants to go further.
It has recently come to light that in June of this year the company patented a much more accurate earthquake detection system. This new method makes use of virtual seismic sensors and adds to the physical ones that research institutes in China already had.
The main novelty for the user will find that he will get a notice with more minutes of margin to be able to get to safety, but it will also be possible to monitor in real time which areas it is affecting, which would be very useful to notify family or friends that they do not receive this warning and can be put to safety.
Xiaomi works together on this type of warning against natural disasters since 2019, when he partnered with Chinese research teams.
It should be noted that Xiaomi is not the only manufacturer that has this type of system, but Google’s submarine cablesThey are also capable of perceiving these earthquakes.
