1.Application of a high reduction mechanism to design leveling device, with full 360 degrees restoring leveling device, and 0.1 degrees accuracy, will auto-level from all possible orientations. 
2.It is exceedingly light and portable with an ultra-low power consumption for long-term monitor seismic activities.
3.A full titanium sphere pressure vessel ensures exceptional ruggedness and resistance, up to 6000 m depth.

The Ocean bottom seismograph has designed to record earth motion under oceans, such as the seismic waves caused by tectonic activities. Ocean bottom seismograph deployments enable us to locate earthquakes and map the fault-geometry beneath the seafloor which are not well constrained by data recorded by land-based seismometers. However, there are lots of challenges (e.g. power consumption, size and weight, timing, unpredictable seabed environment) being faced to design a suitable Ocean bottom seismograph for the practical usage, so only a very small number of countries around the world are capable of manufacturing Ocean bottom seismograph.
Beginning from 2008, the ongoing Ocean bottom seismograph project has been leading by TORI, Academic Sinica, and National Sun Yat-sen University from designing, testing to success. Ocean bottom seismograph have been deployed and recovered in several research cruises and obtained the great results.
Taiwan-designed Ocean bottom seismograph units less expensive and weight (200Kg) than comparable foreign-made devices, not only long-term monitoring seismic activities but also anticipating to assess the potential hazards triggered by earthquakes and submarine volcanic activities. Compared to the limited products in the business market, the self-contained OBS, fully designed and manufactured in Taiwan, is compact in size and ultra-low in consumption power that can operate up to a year at high sampling rate with high resolution and broad bandwidth in response. High quality data can further be assured with the help of an auto-leveling mechanism to align the sensor direction with the gravity field.
