About Quake-Catcher Network Sensor Monitoring
https://quakecatcher.net/sensor/The Quake Catcher Network (QCN) is a research project that uses Internet-connected computers to do research, education, and outreach in seismology.
You can participate by downloading and running a free program on your computer.
Currently only certain Mac (OS X) PPC and Intel laptops are supported -- recent ones which have a built-in accelerometer.
You can also buy an external USB accelerometer.
QCN is based at the University of Southern California (USC).
From 2015 to 2016, QCN was based at the Caltech Divisien of Geological and Planetary Sciences (GPS). From 2007 to 2015 QCN was based at the Stanford University School of Earth Sciences The Quake Catcher Network (QCN)
The Quake-Catcher Network is a collaborative initiative for developing the world’s largest, low-cost strong-motion seismic network by utilizing sensors in and attached to internet-connected computers.
With your help, the Quake-Catcher Network can provide better understanding of earthquakes, especially in areas that do not have large, broadband seismic networks and/or are not known to be particularly earthquake prone.
The Quake-Catcher Network also provides educational software designed to help teach about earthquakes and earthquake hazards.

Sensor Sales are Currently Closed
We are currently underway on a major overhaul of the QCN servers and software. Service will be disrupted often. Until we can provide a more stable service, we are not distributing sensors. Please check this website to learn when we have resumed normal service.
Thanks, The QCN Team
Not sure about this one, I am running some tasks (NCI) but not sure what they really do ATM
