Google CEO Sundar Pichai has shared the company’s ongoing experiments using subsea fibre optic cables which showed that it could be useful for earthquake and tsunami warning systems around the globe.

Google recently conducted an experiment using its subsea fiber optic cables, which showed that it could be useful for earthquake and tsunami warning systems.

Most of these techniques are effective over distances of up to 100 kilometres, but Google claims it has developed a technique that works over tens of thousands of kilometres.

Valey Kamalov, Google Global Networking and Mattia Cantono, Google Global Networking wrote in a blogspot, “Fibre optic cables connect far-flung continents along the ocean floor, and much of the internet’s international traffic travels over these cables. Google’s global network of undersea cables makes it possible to share, search, send, and receive information around the world at the speed of light. These cables are built using optical fibres that carry data as pulses of light traveling at 204,190 kilometres per second”
