Data Logging
Data Logger & Sensor Manufacturers & Suppliers
Data Logger & Sensor Manufacturers & Suppliers to top level motorsport from the UK and USA.
A data logger (or datalogger) is an electronic device that records data over time or in relation to location either with a built in instrument or sensor or via external instruments and sensors. Increasingly, but not entirely, they are based on a digital processor (or computer). They generally are small, battery powered and portable.
Dataloggers vary between general purpose types for a range of measurement applications to very specific devices for measuring in one environment only. It is common for general purpose types to be programmable however many remain as static machines with only a limited number of changeable parameters. Electronic dataloggers have replaced chart recorders in many applications. more from Wikipedia
