Bio-inspired wind sensing using strain sensors on flexible wings could revolutionize robotic flight control strategy. Researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo have developed a method to detect wind ...

Anybody interested in building their own robot, sending spacecraft to the moon, or launching inter-continental ballistic missiles should have at least some basic filter options in their toolkit, ...

Eldred Rock wind speed and wind direction sensors have not been working for a couple of weeks, frustrating both the Lynn Canal gillnet fleet and National Weather Service. The instruments record ...

Engineers have designed and successfully tested a more efficient wind sensor for use on drones, balloons and other autonomous aircraft. Engineers have designed and successfully tested a more efficient ...

One of the biggest problems with wind energy is that it's difficult to predict the behavior of the wind itself and, by extension, to plan for the amount of power wind turbines are able to generate in ...

The Netatmo Weather Station, which can accurately and in real time measure weather information such as temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide concentration, air quality, noise level, atmospheric ...

Winds are measured by sensors located 20 feet above the ground. That is the height at which, by international agreement, wind readings are taken. Wind speeds are two-minute averages and the strongest ...
