Motion Detector

£177.00 ex VAT | £212.40 Inc VAT

The Motion Detector uses ultrasound to measure the position of carts, balls, people, and other objects.

  • Measure objects as close as 15 cm and as far away as 6 m.
  • Sensitivity switch reduces noise and produces higher quality data for studying dynamics carts on tracks.
  • Attaches easily to the Vernier Dynamics System.
  • Pivoting head allows for flexibility in the experiment setup.
