Vaavud巧妙地利用了3.5mm标准耳机接口来与智能手机相连,风速计负责采集数据,而与之匹配的应用程序可以进行数据分析,而其独创的先进算法可以将室内数据和人为数据(比如吹气)排除在外。另外,Vaavud也将互联网云服务融入其中,世界各地的用户都可以将当地的风力状况上传至服务器,据统计Vaavud总部一周可以收到超过4000份数据。

据悉,目前支持这款便携式风速计的设备有iPhone 4/4s/5/5c/5s、Galaxy S3/S4、Nexus 5以及HTC One,售价为50美元(约合人民币310元)。值得一提的是,著名农业公司Lantmännen Maskin AB是Vaavud的合作伙伴之一,该公司利用这款便携式风速计实时监控瑞典当地风力情况并以此为依据来选择合适的农药喷洒期,这样就可以减少农药与人类的接触机会。除此以外,考虑到风速和风力会对很多室外运动产生干扰,笔者认为Vaavud对于极限运动爱好者来说也非常实用,看来小小的Vaavud确实能让我们的生活变得更美好。

The rugged and electronic-free Vaavud wind meter turns your compatible smartphone into a high-tech meteorological tool, measuring wind speeds up to 48 knots with near-professional precision. Its unique design and electronic-free technology provide durability and reliability to meet the demands of an active life and the powerful Vaavud App provides an extremely easy to read and user-friendly interface, with the potential for expanded functionality and interaction.With its compact two cup design, inspired by professional anemometers, the Vaavud wind meter is accurate, practical and pocket friendly. It has a one piece durable plastic rotor and low friction PTFE bearing. Reliability and long service life are assured through the use of revolutionary electronic-free technology, communicating directly with the magnetic field sensor in your smartphone.The Vaavud App measures and displays wind speed in commonly used units of measurement. It has a neat and clean interface that shows actual, mean, and max wind speeds. The smoothed graph provides additional data on variations in strength as well as a quick overview. The graph supports zoom so data can be viewed in fine detail.The Vaavud wind meter has a wind range from 4 knots up to 48 knots (2m/s up to 25m/s). Accuracy is the lower of +- 4% and 0.4 knots (0.2m/s), with testing and calibration confirmed in the professional wind tunnel at the Technical University of Denmark. The cup anemometer design makes the Vaavud less sensitive to the way it is pointed; a weakness in impeller type wind meters.The Vaavud wind meter application works on iOS or Android smartphones. The electronic-free signal transfer utilises the magnetic field sensor (digital compass), in your phone or tablet. To be able to detect high wind speed this sensor requires a high update/refresh frequency.See www.ronstan.com for the most up-to-date information on Smartphone compatibility.
