Hygrometer:
This device is used to measure the humidity in the air. A common way these devices work is by using a material that attracts moisture, and that changes depending on how moist it is.
Barometer:
A barometer is a scientific instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure, also called barometric pressure. The atmosphere is layers of air wrapped around the earth. All our barometers only work at distance of 800M above sea level.
Our products are used for determining the temperature with regards to weather. Thermometers are widely used in industry to control and regulate processes, in the study of weather, in medicine, and in scientific research.
