Description
We are carrying out the most ambitious and comprehensive all-sky survey for pulsars and transient sources to date. Using new digital filterbank backends this survey will create a digital record of the sky that can be data mined in the future and used to search for relativistic binary and millisecond pulsars, RRATs, and extragalactic radio bursts. Using GPU technology we have developed a realtime transient detector capable of finding intermittent pulsars and fast radio bursts within minutes of the data being taken. The first results of this transient search will be presented.
