Abstract

A vibration wave detector, having a receiver for receiving vibration waves such as sound waves and so on to be propagated in a medium, a resonant unit having a plurality of cantilever resonators each having such a length as to resonate at an individual predetermined frequency, a retaining rod for retaining the resonant unit, a vibration intensity detector for detecting the vibration intensity, for each predetermined frequency, of each of the resonators, by the vibration waves received by the receiver and propagated to the resonant unit by way of the retaining rod.
