A cOMplETEly WiRElEss
sENsOR sysTEM
The Wireless dynamics Sensor System combines
a 3-axis accelerometer, force sensor, and
altimeter into one unit that communicates
wirelessly with your computer via Bluetooth ®
.
You can also use it as a standalone data logger.
It’s more than just a wireless sensor; it’s a
complete data-collection system completely
free of friction due to cables.
Wireless Dynamics sensor system
order code WDss, $249
Includes a rechargeable battery * and charger,
bumpers for collisions, hooks for mounting
the unit in different positions, mounting
hardware for Vernier and other dynamics carts,
and a manual.
yOU AlsO NEED:
computer use
• Logger Pro 3 software
• either compatible built-in Bluetooth or
Bluetooth USB dongle
labQuest use
• LabQuest 2
or
• original LabQuest with Bluetooth USB dongle
Bluetooth UsB Dongle Radio
order code BlUE-UsB, $35
each computer used with a WdSS must have a
Bluetooth radio. This convenient USB dongle
adds Bluetooth capabilities to any original
LabQuest, Windows XP SP2, Vista, Windows 7,
or Mac oS X 10.4 or newer computer that lacks
Bluetooth. It can also be used with a LabQuest
to add Bluetooth capabilities to LabQuest.
(requires LabQuest App 1.5, or newer)
* The Wireless dynamics Sensor System battery carries a one-
year warranty.
