DELSAR LIFEDETECTOR™ Compact System Listening device for locating buried survivors.http://www.delsar.com/
"Searching for survivors after a disaster is always a race against time. The LifeDetector can help fire/search and rescue services to pinpoint persons who can still indicate that they are alive by means of movements, knocking or calling. The LifeDetector is capable of detecting these signs of life by using special sensors designed to pick up the extremely small vibrations transmitted in solid or gaseous media.
Experience has shown that very frequently victims trapped in a building collapse can hear their rescuers, but cannot be heard themselves outside of the rubble pile. Layers of solid concrete or rubble can block any airborne sounds from escaping. However, if the victims can tap, scratch, or move, the collapsed structure carries these sounds effectively. These sounds are not heard by the human ear, but they can be picked up by electronic listening devices. These devices employ Sensors which can convert the vibrations into visible and/or audible signals."
