Human footstep detection using seismic sensors

This paper is focused on the hardware and software implementation of DSP algorithms for footstep detection using seismic signal. The main contribution of this research consists in a hardware design and in a software application that process the signals received from the seismic sensor of type SM-24 using PC sound card. The signal samples received from the sensor are stored in a .wav file. The main application is written in C# programming language and uses Matlab library (it was created a DLL library that was used in C#) in order to process the seismic signals on a low level.
