Development of newton dynamometer instrumentation integrated with smart counter applications based on Hooke's law
Indonesian Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science
Abstract
This research presents the development of an instrumentation system that employs ultrasonic sensors for Newton dynamometer applications. A key parameter measured is the change in spring length before and after loading. The methodology implemented in this study is based on Hooke's Law, applied within the instrumentation devices. The length change data is transmitted to a smartphone via a Bluetooth module integrated into the instrument. This allows for flexible data usage and input through a calculator-based application created with MIT App Inventor, tailored to the relevant supporting parameters. Before implementation, the sensors underwent characterization to assess the linearity of their output compared to a standard measuring tool, specifically a ruler. The linearity test yielded a coefficient of 0.9998, indicating excellent performance for this application. Additionally, the system achieved an average accuracy of 94.12% and an average precision of 99.94%.
