VERNIER GO DIRECT FORCE PLATE
Designed for much greater forces than the Dual-Range Force or Go Direct Force and Acceleration sensors, the Vernier Go Direct Force Plate can measure the forces developed during stepping, jumping and other human-scale actions.

For example, you can perform the following kinds of experiments:
• Observe the change in normal force during an elevator ride.
• Measure the impulse delivered by the floor during a jump.
• Measure the reaction force as a student leans against a wall.

Rechargeable Battery — Ready When You Are
The Vernier Go Direct™ robust rechargeable battery offers long battery life and provides always-ready operation. Monitor battery life directly from Vernier's free Graphical Analysis™ app as well as Vernier LabQuest 3. Should the battery run low simply connect the sensor to the charging cable and keep on collecting — no interruptions or inconvenience to you or your students.

Wired or Wireless — The Flexibility to Choose
Vernier's Go Direct™ sensors connect directly to your mobile device, Chromebook or computer using Vernier's free Graphical Analysis™ app. No additional equipment or software purchases are necessary. Vernier Go Direct sensors can be used wired via USB or wirelessly via Bluetooth allowing you to choose the solution best for your classroom or laboratory.

Vernier Graphical Analysis™ Pro includes all the features of the free Vernier Graphical Analysis app, plus enhanced functions for more advanced analysis. Its illustrative experiment videos and interactive graphing capabilities inspire students to explore crucial scientific concepts and analyze data in new complex and insightful ways.
Vernier Graphical Analysis™ Pro is compatible with most Vernier sensors and multiple operating systems and devices.
