Stryde

Autonomous Nodal Recording System

The STRYDE Node™ is an ultra-lightweight, autonomous seismic receiver designed for high-density land seismic surveys. It is widely recognized as the smallest and lightest node in the industry, significantly reducing the logistical costs and environmental impact of subsurface imaging.

Designed for rapid deployment and reliable autonomous recording, STRYDE supports land and near‑surface seismic projects in challenging terrain where conventional cabled systems are impractical.
