Beam me up!

I just got this in an email:

http://www.sensorcon.com/sensordrone/

Basically it's a sensor package that relays info on pretty well anything to your smartphone through Bluetooth.  You can measure air quality, temperature, atmospheric pressure, light intensity and so on.

I think I may have to get in on this- on top of the fun I could have with it in general I can think of a few professional uses for it too!

Best of all, one reviewer says:

Quote
Guyism - "They even use the Star Trek font and refer to the Tricorder. NEEEEEEEERDSSSSS!... It’s actually pretty useful, a kind of technological Swiss Army knife."

I've been saying that a Start Trek tricorder was the Swiss Army Knife of the future, and it looks like others agree.

I think I may have to look into getting one of these Sensordrones...
