Vernier Software & Technology today launched its Go Direct family of sensors, which enable scientific data collection wirelessly or via a USB connection. The 16 new sensors are ideal for chemistry, physical science and middle school science classes, the company said.

The Go Direct sensors can measure temperature, light, radiation, voltage, pressure and more. Each sensor is compatible with more than 190 experiments from Vernier, as well as the company’s Graphical Analysis 4 app. The app can collect data from multiple Go Direct sensors simultaneously. Students can use the Data Sharing feature to retrieve and share data from each sensor.
