R.M. Young Company Launches Re-Engineered SNOdar Snow Depth Sensor
R.M. Young Company announced the launch of their re-engineered SNOdar (Model 54000), a LIDAR-based snow depth sensor that delivers real-time, accurate snow depth measurements during active snowfall, when reliable data is needed most. Across environmental monitoring, infrastructure management and public safety, accurate snow depth data is a critical operational input. Obtaining that data reliably during active storm conditions has long presented a technical challenge. Most snow depth sensors rely on ultrasonic technology, which is susceptible to signal degradation in falling snow. SNOdar uses LIDAR
ScioSense Launches UFC23 Ultrasonic Flow Converter for High-Precision, Ultra-Low-Power Smart Metering
