Weather stations are a popular project for experimenting with various environmental sensors, and for wind speed and direction the choice is usually a simple cup anemometer and wind vane.

To measure wind speed and direction, most people turn the traditional cup anemometer and wind vane. Another less-known method is to use an array of ultrasonic transducers, which doesn’t need any ...

Meteorologists use an anemometer, a device that measures wind speed, to figure out how fast the wind is blowing. Here’s how you can make your very own! Here’s a list of materials you’ll need ...

Description: The PAV5000 series MEMS anemometer sensor is fully calibrated and temperature-compensated for easy integration into portable anemometers and fixed in-duct air velocity monitors for the ...

If you place your weather station in an alley, you could very well get a wind tunnel effect on the anemometer, resulting in erroneous wind data. Your weather station should have good "fetch", or ...

We will use everyday materials to build a homemade anemometer. Submit photos or videos of your students participating to [email protected]. For more fun experiments, check back on Tuesdays ...
