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.
When a weight is applied to the force plate, because it
doesn’t move, you can assume the normal force
pushing up from the ground is equal to the force
which is being applied to it. This is the basis for how
the force plate sensor accurately and quickly measures
applied forces. Several strain gauges inside of the
force plate’s body take readings and are compared to
one another to give a total force measurement.
