Audio Resq geostereophone (acoustic victim locator)

The Audio Resq geostereophone is an acoustic instrument for precisely locating people trapped under rubble using stereophonic listening. Two probes (sensors) deployed across the rubble let the operator, thanks to directional hearing, determine exactly which direction the victim's sound is coming from, while an amplifier and filters enhance the signals (tapping, voice) and suppress background noise.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

What is a geostereophone?

It is an acoustic locator with stereophonic listening — thanks to two probes the operator hears directionally and pinpoints the victim's location.

How does it differ from the wireless system?

The geostereophone is for precise, directional listening at a chosen point; the wireless system covers a larger rubble area with sensors.
