A handheld or mountable air measuring device includes a sensor assembly with sensors that measure airspeed simultaneously in two directions that are perpendicular to each other. The device includes a data protocol conversion board allowing the communication between the sensor assembly and a smart device included with or associated with the device. The smart device receives the airspeed data. The smart device includes a user interface that includes a map or layout of the environment within which the device is used. The data is displayed on the smart device on the map. The data can be processed locally or transmitted to a remote location for processing. One or more dashboards are generated from the data and accessible by the smart device or another computing device.

The anemometer may include a controller configured to determine wind speed and direction using the air pressure measurement signals from the at least one sensor. The anemometer may include a communication module configured to send and/or receive signals from the at least one sensor and the controller using wired and/or wireless communication. The communication module may send or receive signals to or from a network, a server, a vehicle, a structure, and/or a user interface. The anemometer may include a power supply connected to the at least one sensor, controller and/or communication module.

A system for detecting and avoiding dangerous conditions by a mobile machine having a body, an actuated machine component, and a dangerous condition sensor including a non-contact electrical power sensor, a wind speed or direction sensor, a tilt sensor, or a terrain type sensor is provided. The system includes a supervisory controller located in the mobile machine and in communication with a server for communicating data objects storing information related to hazardous conditions, and for receiving information regarding hazardous conditions manually designated or detected by a remote source. An interlock limits operation of the mobile machine to prevent operation in an unsafe condition. Hazardous conditions are categorized as a danger condition, a limited-operation condition, and/or a warning condition. A user signaling device including audio and visual signaling devices alert an operator of a hazard. A method of detecting and avoiding dangerous conditions by the mobile machine is also provided.

A method at a sensor apparatus, the method including calculating a value for a target function based on at least one sensor of the sensor apparatus; determining that the value of the target function is within a defined threshold range for a defined time period, thereby finding an in-flight state for the sensor apparatus; and turning off transmission from a radio of the sensor apparatus based on the in-flight state.

Method for testing a rotor blade ice detection system for a wind turbine, the rotor blade ice detection system being configured to output a warning in the event of icing of a rotor blade being monitored, the method having the following steps of: acquiring data relating to a rotor blade to be monitored, providing at least one value of an operating and/or environmental parameter, modifying the at least one value provided in such a manner that the at least one modified value differs from an actual value of the parameter, evaluating the data relating to the rotor blade to be monitored and the at least one modified value via the rotor blade ice detection system, and testing whether the rotor blade ice detection system outputs a warning.

A method and apparatus for providing an advised driving speed to a driver of a vehicle travelling on a road network is disclosed. The method comprises determining an advised driving speed of a vehicle for a portion of the road network currently being traversed, determining a current speed of the vehicle on the portion of the road network, and determining a speed limit and/or an expected driving speed for the portion of the road network. An indication of the advised driving speed is then provided to the driver of the vehicle when: (i) the current speed of the vehicle is greater than a first threshold value based on the advised driving speed; and (ii) the speed limit and/or the expected driving speed is greater than a second threshold value. A method and apparatus is also disclosed for determining a score indicative of the compliance of a driver of a vehicle to an advised driving speed during a journey on a road network.
