CUP ANEMOMETER: Anemometer which measures wind speed by the speed of rotation of 3 or 4 hemispherical or conical cups, each fixed to the end of a horizontal arm projecting from a vertical axis. ... Commonly used with mechanical wind sensors to describe the wind speed necessary to cause the anemometer and wind vane to turn.

Weather Scope: An Investigative Study of Weather and Climate ... Wind is the horizontal movement of air. The instrument used to measure wind speed is called an anemometer, which is an indicator that will spin in the wind. The anemometer rotates at the same speed as the wind. It gives a direct measure of the speed of the wind.
