Datalogger Vu Sensor - Timing Gates (Pair)

This pair of Vu Timing Gates is designed to support hands-on learning in physics and motion experiments. These digital light gates use an infrared beam to detect when an object passes through, enabling precise measurement of time and speed. Use a single gate for spot timing, or a pair for start-stop experiments to analyse acceleration or velocity. Their plug-and-play design makes them ideal for classroom dynamics investigations.

Educational Benefits

• Provides accurate measurements for physics motion studies.
• Reinforces principles of speed, velocity, and acceleration.
