Go Wireless Temp works like a thermometer and is supported by a free iOS app. Students can use the app to collect temperature readings with their iPads, iPhones or iPod Touch devices. The instrument also supports Graphical Analysis for iPad, an app that enables students to "save data, perform curve fits, annotate graphs, perform statistical calculations and export data for additional analysis," according to Vernier.
