Storm Blogger Bot
Storm Blogger Bot is used to measure wind. Attached to the branches of trees, it measures the bend in the level of vibration from the branches and reports back the rate of these changes, allowing the viewer to see for example the intensity of a storm. It can be used as part of a network for storm monitoring bots in different locations, and as a precursor to weather warnings for a specific area.
