Build a Novel Wind Sensor Using Wireless Signals
You will be able to "see" the wind from wireless signals.
Project description
Wind sensors can drive many applications, from structural health to environmental health. In this project, we will explore an array of wireless signals (e.g., ultrasound, radio-frequency and lights) to build novel wind sensors for mobile and personalized applications.
Project outcome
The goal of this project is to develop a hardware prototype of wind sensors.
