Description
Summary:This paper discuss about the hardware interfacing system by using USB 6008 data acquisition (DAQ) device. The hardware consists of mechanical and electrical part. For the mechanical part, the simple propeller anemometer is used to determine wind speed and wind direction with application of fiber optic as a sensor. The electrical part consists of signal conditioning circuit that used to determine the speed and direction measurement. The goal is to achieve an accurate measurement of the speed and direction by using photo detector or photodiode as a sensor before transformed to the desired output signal that is in term of frequency and voltage. Therefore, the aim of this project is to establish the hardware configuration system that can be used to interface with the mechatronic instrumentation and Lab VIEW software. In this case, the USB 6008 DAQ device is proposed to be used as an interfacing hardware. The basic idea of this project is to have or get a smooth, accurate and ergonomic measurement and display from the results of developed instrument.
