ATL Wind Speed Anemometer Kit
ATL Wind Speed Anemometer Kit – Build a Real-Time Wind Speed Meter with Arduino
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
You've probably felt the wind push against you and wondered how fast it's moving. With this kit, you won't just guess — you'll build a precise instrument that measures wind speed in kilometers per hour and displays it on a bright OLED screen. It turns a simple classroom physics concept into a working tool you can hold in your hand, perfect for weather stations, science fairs, and ATL lab experiments.
What You'll Build
A handheld or mountable anemometer that uses a spinning 3-cup rotor and a Hall effect sensor to detect every rotation. An Arduino Nano counts the pulses, converts them into engineering units, and shows the live wind speed on a crisp 0.96-inch OLED display. By the end, you'll have a functional weather instrument that demonstrates the direct link between magnetic field detection, microcontroller programming, and real-world environmental monitoring.
What You'll Learn
- How a Hall effect sensor detects magnetic fields and generates digital pulses without physical contact
- Programming an Arduino to count sensor interrupts and avoid missing fast rotations
- Converting rotational data into meaningful speed units like km/h using calibration formulas
- Wiring and integrating multiple components — sensor, display, and microcontroller — on a breadboard reliably

Who This Kit Is For
ATL Tinkering Lab students exploring sensor-based measurement will find this kit directly relevant to curriculum goals around environmental sensing and data acquisition. CBSE Class 11-12 physics students can use it to connect textbook concepts of rotational motion and magnetism to a working prototype. Teachers running STEM clubs, B.Tech ECE/EEE undergraduates building mini-projects, and Smart India Hackathon participants looking for a reliable weather sensing module will all get a fully compatible, no-soldering-required build experience.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR code on the box to start a conversation with our AI companion trained on this exact anemometer project, or reach out via WhatsApp — you're never stuck alone.
Does this kit need actual wind, or can I test it indoors?
You can spin the 3-cup rotor by hand or place it in front of a table fan indoors — the Hall effect sensor will count every rotation and display the speed, letting you test and calibrate without waiting for a windy day.
Is any soldering or special tools required?
None at all. All connections use jumper wires and a half breadboard, so you can prototype, tweak, and reassemble without touching a soldering iron.
Can I log the wind speed data for a science fair or ATL project report?
Yes. The Arduino Nano can transmit serial data to a computer, and with a slight firmware extension, you can log wind speed readings over time for graphical analysis and presentation.
Hall effect sensor counts rotations of a 3-cup anemometer — Arduino calculates and displays wind speed in km/h.
