Sensors

Absolute Humidity
Absolute humidity is a measure of the actual amount of water vapor (moisture) in the air.
Heat Index
The heat index combines air temperature and relative humidity to posit a human-perceived equivalent temperature.
Dew Point
The dew point is the temperature to which air must be cooled to become saturated with water vapor and dew forms on surfaces.
Thermal Perception
Human perception of the dew point.
Frost Point
Frost point, temperature, below 0° C (32° F), at which moisture in the air will condense as a layer of frost on any exposed surface.
Frost Risk
Risk of Frost based on current temperature, frost point and absolute humidity.
Simmer Index
An index that combines air temperature and relative humidity. In contrast to the Heat Index it describes the human-perceived equivalent temperature at night and describes a factor of discomfort.
Simmer Zone
Human perception of the simmer index.
