GALILEO transforms virtually any PC with an 8088 or higher, into a powerful interactive scientific measurement tool.

Galileo is a remarkably user-friendly interface with sensors and timing devices that link scientific data to the computer. With Galileo, you can measure pressure, temperature, light intensity, pH, sound, force, magnetic field, humidity and distance very precisely. Sensors list

From these measurements, you can graph and compute any kind of experiments in real time.

Galileo includes an exclusive video tutorial that virtually eliminates the need to read the manual (also included) in order to get started.
