Abstract :
The purpose of this project was to design and implement a system containing all the equipment necessary to monitor, record and control an experiment while still maintaining portability. A portable data acquisition system, with wireless local area network (LAN) connection, was designed and implemented using off-the-shelf and custom-made components. The Engineering Faculty was consulted regarding their individual needs in data acquisition. Components were selected in accordance to the Department´s needs while taking into account the most cost-effective solutions.
