With both Bluetooth and USB connectivity, this easy-to-use sensor enables students to take turns measuring their distance, while the class observes their motion materializing as a graph in real time. And, without cables to get in the way, students can extend their studies with handheld and ceiling-mounted applications!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-12 mb-2\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"h2\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"condensed multi-col\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasures position, velocity, and acceleration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFalse Target Rejection Technology produces cleaner data\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClips directly to PASCO Dynamics Tracks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRod clamp for mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e180° pivoting head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRechargeable lithium-ion battery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBluetooth® or USB connectivity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-12 mb-2\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"h2\"\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"condensed multi-col\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasure the motion of moving objects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplore the relationship between position, velocity, and acceleration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasure objects in freefall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasure how air resistance affects falling objects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInvestigate frames of reference\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInvestigate the Conservation of Energy and Momentum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSimple harmonic motion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeafloor mapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"h2\"\u003eHow It Works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Wireless Motion Sensor uses echolocation, similar to a dolphin or bat. In order to determine the distance to an object, an ultrasonic pulse is emitted from the sensor. The sensor listens for a signature ‘echo’ which reflects off the object’s surface. The object's distance is calculated by determining the elapsed time between the ultrasonic pulse and detected echo, then, this value is used with the speed of sound to calculate the object's distance. Measurements of velocity and acceleration are derived algorithmically using numerical methods. This provides a balanced approach to calculating numerical derivatives, which reduces noise and minimizes smoothing effects on high frequency peaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"h2\"\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"condensed product-detail-included mb-0\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"include-qty\"\u003e1x\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"include-desc\"\u003eUSB charging cable\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"include-desc\"\u003e1x Pasco Wireless Motion Sensor\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Science with Mat PTY LTD ABN 35 651 995 318","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46789280923817,"sku":"PS-3219","price":400.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0567\/4074\/1289\/files\/WirelessMotionSensor1.png?v=1770515201","url":"https:\/\/sciencewithmat.com.au\/products\/pasco-wireless-motion-sensor","provider":"Science with Mat PTY LTD ABN 35 651 995 318","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
