ABSTRACT:
The disclosure teaches a device for creating an infinite number of vector triangles such that a vehicle's speed may be set as one leg of a vector triangle and the apparent wind's speed and direction may be set as a second leg, solution of the third leg yielding true wind speed and relative wind direction which is convertible into true wind direction by reference to vehicle true heading.
