In major tournaments like the UEFA Euro, weather conditions can be a game-changer. Specifically, wind speed can affect the trajectory of the ball, player performance, and even the overall experience of spectators in the stadium. During the 2017 UEFA Champions League Final, Scarlet’s WR-3 Plus wireless wind speed meter was utilized at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, Wales.

The wireless wind sensor is deployed outside the Millennium Stadium on a tent. The WR-3 Plus provided real-time wind speed data and instant alerts via the portable receiver, enabling officials to monitor weather conditions with precision. This setup ensured quick assessment of any changes in wind speed, helping to maintain safety and fair play during the matches.
