Earthquake is something which is hard for us to predict as it may happen at anytime and anywhere. We can still detect the signs but it will take time to transfer the data to warn the public. Now, a smartphone application has been made that could save millions of lives. Using the GPS, it enables the phone to detect the incoming earthquakes or tsunamis and warn at the same time.
I think this is a really good piece of innovation that the researchers have created. Since many countries like Indonesia and Japan are probed to earthquake and tsunamis, this app will help to save the millions of innocent lives. You don't have to always depend on the siren and you can just flee to safety.
But on the other hand, I think it's a bit useless if you don't own a smartphone though...
