Abstract?The AKUNU project is an international effort to design an inexpensive sensor network for the measurement of atmospheric parameters including lightning. The current AKUNU platform can record temperature, light, humidity and wind speed. In this paper, the AKUNU devices, both in their previous version and in their current state of development are presented and the current extension to the measurement of return stroke fields, as well as the deployment of the sensor network in Argentina for test purposes are described.
