Data-logger supplier Onset has introduced its new Wind Direction Smart Sensor, a research-grade plug-and-play sensor for measuring and logging wind-direction data.
The sensor works with the company's HOBO Weather Stations and is designed for a broad range of applications, including wind resource assessment, meteorology, environmental studies, building energy studies, agricultural research and crop management.
The new sensor can be used individually or coupled with Onset's Wind Speed Smart Sensor. By combining the two sensors, customers can collect average wind speed, highest three-second wind gust and average wind direction, Onset says.
