A Spirometer.
What is a spirometer?
A spirometer is an apparatus for measuring the volume of air inspired and expired by the lungs. It is a precision differential pressure transducer for the measurements of respiration flow rates. The spirometer records the amount of air and the rate of air that is breathed in and out over a specified period of time.
That's according to WikiPedia. I chanced upon the term while I was looking for some grilled dishes recipes. Apparently, for some who always grill food first-hand must be aware that there can be some mild effects to your lungs if you are exposed to grilling and smoke very often. Hmmm, that's a little trivia for all of us :P.
