iPad App demonstration With Physics Professor Mike Cavagnero

The 26 A&S Wired students registered for Mike Cavagnero's eight-week class: "The Science of Measurement" tackle projects from around campus and complete the endeavors using iPad measuring tools. The iPad can serve as a compass to measure magnetic fields, has a built-in camera, so it can serve as a spectrometer to measure light sources and an accelerometer, which can measure how fast it is moving. Watch Mike Cavagnero show off a couple of the capabilities of the iPad.
