data logger
Automated measurement chronicler
A data logger is a device that automatically records measurements over time—temperature, humidity, voltage, or other variables.
Unlike manual recording, data loggers collect readings at set intervals, storing them for later analysis.
They're used in scientific research, industrial monitoring, and environmental studies: The data logger showed a temperature spike at 3 AM.
