Evergreen Telemetry (Phoenix, AZ) has introduced a new type of portable instrument, that displays a stream of real-time data on the user’s wrist from battery-operated remote probes. The wireless modules transmit results across the room or across the building, through walls, ceilings, and other obstacles. Difficult placements are accomplished with the help of small clips, magnets, Velcro, or adhesive strips. The probes measure at set intervals, usually two seconds, and transmit the results wirelessly to the Wrist Reporter™ (patent pending), leaving the user’s hands free to drill a hole or adjust a lever. Storing the readings is also a hands-free process; a slight squeeze of the user’s thumb against another wearable module, the Thumbswitch (patent pending) stores the current reading. Up to 20,000 measurements can be stored with timestamps, and uploaded to a PC spreadsheet. The Wrist Reporter can display four readings simultaneously from four different sensing probes.
