Simeon Vambe is seen here demonstrating a prizewinning sensor for measuring
the oomph with which Danielle Ali, his classmate at Torriano Junior School
in London, is blowing the French horn. The sensor is one of seven in ‘First
Sense’, a set for schoolchildren which earned its manufacturer, Philip Harris
of Litchfield in Staffordshire, two prizes this month. One was from the
British Design Council and the other, from National Power, was for innovation.
The heavy-duty plastic sensors measure temperature, sound, light, humidity,
position, pressure and rotation. Harris supplies an interface which links
the sensors with computers, showing the data as graphs or figures.
