Description:
Measure sound pressure level of a room or an environment with this neat little Phidget that plugs into a VINT port (See the "Compatible Products" tab for a list of VINT Hubs). You could also use it to detect the occurance of sudden noises. The sensor returns data in dB (SPL), which is decibels relative to the quietest noise a human can hear.
