Show transcript
A data logger is a digital device that can automatically record data from sensors over a period of time. Data loggers take readings at set intervals (e.g., every 1 second, 5 minutes, or 1 hour). The timing of these intervals affects how detailed the collected data will be. Shorter intervals give more detailed data, but require more storage. Using this data, you can identify and explain patterns shown in the data.
