Today, anemometry combines various means of measuring involving a wide range of technologies. Among the most widely used, there are Pitot tube probes, rotary and thermal anemometers, and more recently ultrasonic transducers. Although some of them, such as thermal or ultrasonic probes, are capable to determine flow speeds and directions but they are not well suited to industrial use due to their size and the small angular sector covered. This paper describes an innovative device that makes it possible to calculate the three components speed, direction and sense of the flow of a fluid such as air. With a near spherical angular sector it is perfectly suited to industrial use.
