Fig 1. Umbrella-mounted lightweight wind and rain sensor

Caption

A versatile, flexible sensor sheet can be easily fixed to a wide range of surfaces to simultaneously monitor rain volume and wind speed. The sensor measures the electrical resistance generated when raindrops hit its surface at different wind speeds and provides sensor data, which is analyzed through reservoir computing.
