Description
· The Vaavud wind meter comes with a free app for iPhone and Android (Samsung Galaxy), and at the same time it will be possible for third-party apps to integrate Vaavud functions into their user interface
· The Vaavud app uses the magnetic field sensor built into all modern smartphones. The wind meter itself contains no electronics - just a few small magnets. The rotations are then measured by the magnetic field sensor and converted into wind speed.
· The technology behind Vaavud is patent pending
· The anemometer can be disassembled and cleaned with water in the event that dirt gets into the moving parts.
· Because Vaavud is a so-called cup anemometer, a correct measurement can be obtained regardless of the direction the wind is coming from (i.e. small changes in wind direction do not affect the accuracy). The sensors in the phone are used to see how the user is holding the device, so the risk of incorrect measurements is minimized.
