VR Mobile vs Vibration Meter, seismograph

VR Mobile connects to any Vibration Research hardware device for live vibration test monitoring via an iPhone or iPad. It also contains engineering calculators, a light strobe, a noise SPL meter, and an accelerometer--all from your mobile device! FEATURES: Connect to the ObserVR1000 dynamic signal analyzer and data acquisition (DAQ) device - Set up inputs and record & monitor data - Live FFT Analysis - Use your mobile device's camera to record video in sync with your ObserVR1000 and/or GoPro® camera(s) Remotely control vibration tests running in the VibrationVIEW software - Start/stop tests - View graphs - Adjust amplitude and frequency VR Library - Complete courses, take quizzes and earn certificates on VR University - Browse articles, case studies, engineering tools, research papers, and more - Watch video tips and tech talks - Gain access to VR product manuals Max acceleration calculator - Calculate the maximum acceleration a shaker can output based on system mass Unit converter - Convert acceleration, force, mass, velocity, displacement, and more Sine calculator - Calculate acceleration, frequency, velocity, and displacement based on sinusoidal motion Shock calculator - Select the impact type (plastic or elastic) and the pulse type, and the shock calculator will calculate the remaining two values given two inputs: acceleration, impact time, velocity change, and height change Noise meter - Measure the minimum, current, and maximum decibels (dB) from your mobile device's microphone Accelerometer - Measure the minimum, current, and maximum acceleration in each of your mobile device's accelerometer axes - Zero-out acceleration to calibrate for an uneven surface Strobe light - Strobe your device's screen and/or flash LED from 1 to 30 Hz; strobing helps display objects vibrating too fast for the eye to see VR products - View VR's vibration test controllers and dynamic signal analyzers - Watch YouTube videos from VR - Visit VR's website - Browse VR's LinkedIn page

Vibration meter is an app called seismograph or seismometer, which measures the strength of vibration, quakes, earthquakes, vibrations of the human body or any other objects around you. Our app allows for detecting and recording of seismic waves generated by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, avalanches and other sources of vibration and shocks. Accelerometer in your mobile phone is used for detection of vibrations and measurement analysis. Graph presents a record of the ground motion at a measuring point. Ground movement or an object is presented as a function of time in the three Cartesian axes, with the z axis perpendicular to the Earth's surface and the x- and y- axes parallel to the surface. Mercalli intensity scale is a seismic scale used for measuring the intensity of an earthquake. It measures the effects of an earthquake and it is distinct from the moment of magnitude. Richter Scale assigns a magnitude number to quantify the energy released by an earthquake. Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) is equal to the maximum ground acceleration that occurred during earthquake shaking at location. PGA is equal to the amplitude of the largest absolute acceleration recorded on an accelerogram at a site during a particular earthquake. In this app we use Instrumental Intensity Scale (developed by The United States Geological Survey) which maps peak ground acceleration and peak ground velocity on an intensity scale similar to the felt Mercalli Scale. These values are used to create shake maps by seismologists on around the world. Mercalli Intensity Scale distinguishes the following levels of vibration and impact damage: I. Instrumental - Not felt. Recorded by seismographs. II. Weak - Felt only on top floors of high buildings. III. Slight - Felt indoors, like a passing light truck. IV. Moderate - Windows, doors rattle. Like passing train. V. Rather Strong - Felt by all. Small objects upset. VI. Strong - Books off shelves. Trees shake. Damage. VII. Very Strong - Difficult to stand. Buildings damaged. VIII. Destructive - Significant damage. Trees broken. IX. Violent - General panic. Serious damage. Cracks. X. Intense - Most buildings destroyed. Rails bent. XI. Extreme - Rails bent greatly. Pipelines destroyed. XII. Catastrophic - Near total damage. This app allows you monitor and share the results of your measurements with other users. Measure and monitor all vibration and shocks using smartphone or tablet!
