jpnn.com, JAKARTA – Xiaomi is reportedly testing a feature that can provide early warning of earthquakes via cellphones in Indonesia.
By testing the new feature, it is hoped that it can help the community detect earthquake will happen.
“We hope to be able to help Indonesian citizens,” said Xiaomi leader in Indonesia Alvin Tse in a press release, quoted Friday (1/4).
An early earthquake warning feature called the early earthquake warning will notify you via cellphone a dozen seconds before the secondary wave arrives.
In addition, this feature can take advantage of the speed of electric waves.
When the feature is turned on on a Xiaomi phone, the system will synchronize early warning information to the Xiaomi server via a special channel.
He stated that they used priority channels to provide early warning to users in disaster-affected areas.
According to him, a notification will appear on the cellphone if the earthquake reaches the Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) IV scale used by the Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG).
