Technical background:
The philosophy behind Edu-Logger’s plug and play
technology is based on each sensor’s ability to store its
own data due to an internal flash memory chip and
micro-controller in each plastic Edu-Logger body.
This technology allows the sensor to collect and then
store the digital data in the correct scientific units (
o
C,
o
F, Lux, %, ppm, for example).
The sensor is pre-calibrated at the factory. The built-in
software in the logger can be upgraded at any time
using software.
Inside of the anemometer sensor a magnet is situated
within a metal coil. The magnet is connected directly
to the wind speed detector which causes the magnet to
spin with the same velocity as the wind propelling it.
The shaft is installed in a bearing and has a magnet at
its end. A digital sensor based on Hall Effect sensor,
analog circuit and a very sophisticated digital
processor is located near the rotating magnet.
The analog and digital circuits analyzes the rotating
magnetic field and calculates the rotation speed and
