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.

Wahoo has laid down its marker for what it believes will be the future direction for cycling computers with the release of the all-new Elemnt Ace. The new computer, which retails for $599.99 / £ ...

We then explain the major power generation components of wind turbines, and how sensors enable condition monitoring of all components. We reference all the sensors that are used for system monitoring.

However it’s large, heavy, and I don’t think the pros need the mapping help — but it does have a pretty cool extra feature: an integrated wind sensor. (You can read our thoughts about the ...

The sensor has a dielectric polymer layer that absorbs ... Cup anemometer with separate wind vane - Uses three cups to measure wind speed, while a wind vane measures wind direction.

One of the challenges of DIY environmental sensors is calibrating them to output reliable absolute values, and this is especially the case for wind speed. You need another anemometer that is known ...
