Researchers have unveiled a pioneering breeze wake-up anemometer (B-WA), employing a rolling-bearing triboelectric nanogenerator (RB-TENG) that provides a new strategy for low-energy consumption ...

COLUMBUS, Ohio – Engineers have designed and successfully tested a more efficient wind sensor for use on drones, balloons and other autonomous aircraft. These wind sensors – called anemometers – are ...

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. For [Jianjia ...

Wind speed measurement has long been a cornerstone of meteorological observation, renewable energy assessment and aeronautical research. The performance of anemometers—devices designed to accurately ...

Sometimes when we look at a hack, its to see how someone chose those parts for the project. In this case, it would have been hard to see it coming. [Janne Jansson] decided to combine a set of ...

Curiosity has two finger-like probes that hold sensors to measure wind speed and direction Nasa has reported its first setback in the Curiosity rover mission to Mars. A sensor on the robot's weather ...

Effective monitoring of slow speed rotating industrial applications, such as wind power generation is a critical requirement, especially given the continued expansion of ‘greener-energy’ alternatives.

Effective monitoring of slow speed rotating industrial applications, such as wind power generation is a critical requirement, just as it is on standard speed applications, especially given the ...
