Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study describes open source hardware with various sensors and a wireless communication system used as a new device to measure the strength of an earthquake and the extent of building damage. The following research was performed.
1. To ascertain the distance at which sensor nodes with XBEE devices can communicate with the server PC, several communication experiments have been performed in different environments.
2. To get technical expertise about estimation of building damage situation and building information gathering system, shaking experiment of actual-size three-story steel building was performed.
