Actually, a barometer is an instrument for measuring air pressure, or atmospheric pressure, but not wind speed or the "pressure" of a wind. This atmospheric pressure is caused by the weight of air above the point of measurement. The instrument that measures wind speed is called an anemometer. Wind direction is indicated by a weather vane.

What is use to measure atmosphere pressure?
Standard atmospheric pressure at sea level is taken as 1 atmosphere for all intensive purposes. Atmospheric pressure near to the surface of the earth is about 1 atm. If we go above it decreases and increases we move towards the center of the earth.
