2. Sunshine recorder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunshine_recorder

   The other instrument is a Marvin sunshine recorder. Older recorders required a human observer to interpret the results; recorded results might differ among observers. Modern sunshine recorders use electronics and computers for precise data that do not depend on a human interpreter. Newer recorders can also measure the global and diffuse radiation.
