Improved Seisgun - The BOSS
Safety is greatly increased due to noise suppression and debris containment.Can accept multiple gauges of standard ammunition ensuring consistent signals at varying depths.Completely portable.
Safely generates seismic signals in a variety of field conditions.
The BOSS is the first portable seismic gun to provide a transport platform for sensor arrays used in seismic studies. The BOSS can also handle multiple gauges of ammunition for obtaining signals to different depths by having an interchangeable barrel, but when firing each gauge of shells it will produce a consistent result. The BOSS also contains a storage area to house and transport any additional equipment.
