Abstract
Wind sensor devices, systems, and methods are provided in accordance with various embodiments. The wind sensor device may include: a first support ring; a second support ring; a first transducer coupled with the first support ring; a second transducer coupled with the first support ring; a third transducer coupled with the second support ring; and a fourth transducer coupled with the second support ring. A center of a face of the first transducer, a center of a face of the second transducer, a center of a face of the third transducer, and a center of a face of the fourth transducer may form four vertices of a tetrahedron, which may include an equilateral tetrahedron. The first transducer, the second transducer, the third transducer, and the fourth transducer are generally directed away from a center of the tetrahedron.
