Description
This app uses internal smartphone sensors to collect, display, record, and export .csv data files. See www.vieyrasoftware.net to (1) read about case usage in research and development, and (2) get lesson plans for educators of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields, including physics. Sensor availability, precision, and accuracy are dependent upon smartphone hardware.
Sensors, generators, and data analysis tools include the following:
KINEMATICS
G-Force Meter - ratio of Fn/Fg (x, y, z and/or total)
Linear Accelerometer – acceleration (x, y, and/or z)
Gyroscope - radial velocity (x, y, and/or z)
Inclinometer - azimuth, roll, pitch
Motion Visualizer - position and velocity calculated via LIDAR
ACOUSTICS
Sound Meter - sound intensity
Tone Detector - frequency and musical tone
Tone Generator – sound frequency producer
Oscilloscope - wave shape and relative amplitude
Spectrum Analyzer - graphical FFT
LIGHT
Color Detector - detects HEX colors within a small rectangle area on the screen via the camera.
Color Generator – R/G/B/Y/C/M, white, and custom color screen
Proximeter - periodic motion and timer (timer and pendulum modes)
MAGNETISM
Compass - magnetic field direction
Magnetometer - magnetic field intensity (x, y, z and/or total)
Magna-AR - augmented reality visualization of magnetic field vectors
OTHER
Barometer - atmospheric pressure
GPS - latitude, longitude, altitude, speed, direction, number of satellites
COMBINATION
Multi Record - choose one or more of the above sensors to collect data at the same time.
What’s New
Version 2024.07.07

Enhanced Load File mode:
Added option to delete previously recorded .csv files.
Ratings and Reviews
Brilliant ! But a request.
This app is great. But I just wondered if you could build in a relative altitude into the barometer app to read out in feet. What I mean by this is so that I can set the height to 0 at the bottom of the set of stairs/hill etc and read what the height is at the top of the stairs by climbing up the stairs using relative altitude or relative height ? It hopefully could be incorporated. I know there kinda is one already in the app, but it’s not easy to reset to zero without having to come out of the barometer section and go back in, and it doesn’t work in feet (only metres).
Developer Response ,
Hi! Yes, we have a standing request to have the measurement in feet (we expect this to become available in the next release). As for the relative height, you'll be able to input the relative barometric sea level pressure to get that measurement.
Not working
The app keeps closing
Developer Response ,
We are sorry to hear about the crash. Please reach out to us at support@vieyrasoftware.net so that we can try to debug the issue.
