REFLECTION DATA LOGGER

During this class, we had introduced by the instructor about data logger. She has shown us on how to use it and the function inside the data logger. Before this, I actually have used it in physic experiment such as to collect the data of motion, sound, force and other. But, it did know how to transfers the data in the data logger to the laptop without using it directly connected to the laptop. So, during this class I have learned a new method on how to transfer the data to the laptop. On the other hand, the data logger also can be used in the biology and chemistry experiment based on the sensor present.
What is data logger?????
A data logger is an electronic device that records data over time or in relation to location either with a built in instrument or sensor or via external instrument and sensors. Increasingly, but not entirely, they are based on digital processor (or computer). They generally are small, battery powered, portable, and equipped with microprocessor, internal memory for data storage and sensors. Some data loggers interface with personal computer and utilize software to activate the data logger and view and analyze the collected data, while others have local interface device (keypad LCD) and can be used as a stand-alone device.
