With LabQuest Stream, our wireless and USB sensor interface, students have the freedom and flexibility to simultaneously collect data from multiple Vernier sensors using a mobile device, a Chromebook, or a computer. Just like the name suggests, students can stream data directly to a mobile device using Bluetooth® connectivity rather than Wi-Fi. That’s especially important for schools where network access may be limited or restricted. In addition, LabQuest Stream includes USB connectivity, which allows it to connect directly to a Chromebook or a computer when needed.

Multi-Platform Compatibility

There are multiple ways to collect data using LabQuest Stream, which is compatible with over 50 Vernier sensors.

Use LabQuest Stream as a wireless interface

  • with our free Graphical Analysis app when students use iOS or Android tablets and phones.
  • with our Logger Pro computer software (version 3.13 or newer)

Use LabQuest Stream with the included USB cable

Key Features

  • Multi-channel sensor interface supports both wireless data collection and USB data collection for multi-platform compatibility. It works in the lab, the classroom, and in the field.
  • Five sensor ports give you the flexibility to choose from over 75 Vernier sensors to support multi-variable experiments and data-logging activities.
  • Collect and analyze sensor data wirelessly with iPad and Android devices
  • This computer interface is compatible with Windows and Mac computers via USB connection. You can also connect wirelessly to computers running Logger Pro.
  • Wireless connectivity using Bluetooth® technology delivers real-time data collection with supported platforms.
  • Connect directly to a Chromebook using a USB cable. Wireless connection to Chromebooks coming in a future update to Graphical Analysis.
  • Real-time wireless data collection—up to 10,000 samples per second
  • Rapid, real-time data collection—up to 100,000 samples per second—when connected via USB
  • High-capacity, rechargeable battery accommodates multiple lab experiments in several classes each day.
  • Charge the battery using an AC adapter or a USB cable.

The Absolute Hub of Discovery

“…let me just say that even though I have used all their interfaces since nineteen-ninety something, this is the most exciting thing since the personal computing power of the device-in-hand was harnessed (which is hugely powerful, by the way, Hugely!.)”
