Fig. 12, Vane anemometer for measuring the vertical speed of the bathyscaphe the side. In these circumstances it was impossible to observe the vane anemometer directly, and so it had to transmit its signal electrically. This was quite simple: at the base of the anemofneter shaft (see Fig. 12) we fitted a cylinder of insulating material upon which were placed two metallic segments s s (one short and one long) so that a [98].
