The FullWaver system is suitable for deep electrical investigations and consists of small, independent, two-channel boxes capable of recording the electrical potential in the ground, for induced polarization analysis, resistivity, and spontaneous potential measurements.
Each V FullWaver box is independent, controls three electrodes (two channels), and has a continuous operating autonomy of eight hours, recording the potential differences in the ground on both channels every 10 ms. The system is equipped with a GPS unit for PPS synchronization and localization.
Placing multiple V FullWaver boxes on the ground allows for the acquisition of three-dimensional ERT measurements with even large electrode spacing (50-100 m) and great flexibility in receiver placement, limiting cable interactions with infrastructure (roads, buildings, private property). The system is scalable; a few units or several dozen units can be combined to perform the tomographic survey.
The potential acquisition boxes are combined with high-power transmission systems (Tipix, VIP, etc.): a separate I FullWaver box unit, placed in series with the transmitter, allows continuous measurement of the injected current. An integrated GPS device allows for the synchronization of the measured I current and V potential signals.
