Description
The Sound sensor is suitable for investigating the sound level in normal working environments, and even down to very low levels such as the dawn chorus. It has ranges for sound waves either in dB or in KPa. The sensor has a fast response and therefore two sensors placed a few metres apart can be used to measure the speed of sound.
