Ocean bottom seismometer

Compact deep-sea ocean-bottom seismometer designed to sit on the seafloor, shown as a sturdy metal instrument frame in yellow and gray. The unit has a squat rectangular or tripod-like base structure about the size of a small refrigerator, with a central cylindrical housing and attached sensor components. Glass float spheres are mounted on the frame and protected by bright yellow plastic covers, with release hardware underneath and a short antenna or release mechanism projecting from the top. Overall appearance is rugged, compact seafloor equipment for deep-ocean deployment.
