Here's why:
* Seismograph is a specific device. It's like asking for an antonym of "telescope" - there's no device that directly negates the function of a telescope.
* Antonyms typically refer to opposing concepts or ideas. While you could say "non-seismographic" or "non-seismic" to indicate the absence of seismic activity, this doesn't describe an opposing device or concept.
Instead of an antonym, you could consider words that describe what a seismograph *doesn't* do, such as:
* Barometer: Measures atmospheric pressure, not ground movement.
* Thermometer: Measures temperature, not seismic activity.
* Compass: Indicates direction, not ground movement.
In essence, "seismograph" is a unique term, and finding a true antonym is unlikely due to its specific function.
