Data Acquisition
Data acquisition begins with the instruments and devices that transmit those signals that are translated. These instruments may serve various purposes-from measuring the temperature of a laboratory environment to measuring the speed of flow in a pipe-data acquisition encompasses a wide range of information. A transducer converts this measurement into an electric signal that can be understood by a computer. Data acquisition enables manufacturers to monitor their equipment and to make necessary adjustments. It is also beneficial for the controlled environments necessary in testing conditions. Data acquisition is used in various industries to do a wide variety of tasks. Meteorologists rely on data acquisition systems that measure temperature, humidity, and pressure in making their upcoming weather condition predictions.
