KS3 ICT Data Logging quiz

15 Questions

Quiz Description

In this quiz, we will explore the aspect of data logging. Our main focus will be on the various data logging technologies, the components of a data logger, its uses, and so on. Data loggers are widely used in various domains such as agriculture, medicine, etc. This makes the study of data loggers very exciting as more insights will be given concerning their operation.

A data logger is an electronic device that monitors environmental parameters automatically, allowing the data to be measured, documented, analyzed, and validated. A basic data logger consists of a sensor for the collection of the data, and a computer chip (memory chip) to store it. After measuring and storing the data, it is then sent to the computer for analysis. Some types of data that could be collected are temperature, humidity, voltage, pulses, etc. The process of sampling the real world in order to get data that can be manipulated by a computer is known as Data Acquisition, sometimes abbreviated as DAQ.

The study of data loggers is very important in the world of technology. For this reason, this quiz is made to assist you in acquiring some fundamental knowledge of this technology. Try out this quiz and other ICT quizzes on this platform. Good luck!
