2. File:Mm to 1 inch fraction ruler.svg - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Mm_to_1_inch_fraction...

   English: a ruler from 0 to 1 inch (in.) in 1/32 inch divisions below the line and 1/2 millimetre (mm) divisions above the line to give a visual representation of the approximations. Principally designed to help visually determine if a metric or imperial drill bit will suffice.

3. Graduation (scale) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graduation_(scale)

   A ruler with two linear scales: the metric and imperial.It includes shorter minor graduations and longer major graduations. A graduation is a marking used to indicate points on a visual scale, which can be present on a container, a measuring device, or the axes of a line plot, usually one of many along a line or curve, each in the form of short line segments perpendicular to the line or curve.

4. Scale ruler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_ruler

   A scale ruler is a tool for measuring lengths and transferring measurements at a fixed ratio of length; two common examples are an architect's scale and engineer's scale.In scientific and engineering terminology, a device to measure linear distance and create proportional linear measurements is called a scale.

   A variety of rulers A carpenter's rule Retractable flexible rule or tape measure A closeup of a steel ruler A ruler in combination with a letter scale. A ruler, sometimes called a rule, scale or a line gauge or metre/meter stick, is an instrument used to make length measurements, whereby a length is read from a series of markings called "rules" along an edge of the device.

6. Image sensor format - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_sensor_format

   At one time only Nokia 808 PureView used a 1/1.2" sensor, almost three times the size of a 1/2.3" sensor. Bigger sensors have the advantage of better image quality, but with improvements in sensor technology, smaller sensors can achieve the feats of earlier larger sensors.

7. Optical format - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_format

   The result is expressed in inches and is usually (but not always) rounded to a convenient fraction. For instance, a 6.4x4.8 mm sensor has a diagonal of 8.0 mm and therefore an optical format of 8.0*3/2 = 12 mm, which is expressed as 1 ⁄ 2 inch in imperial units. The reason it is expressed in inches is historical, dating back to the early days ...

   1:8: 184 mm or 190.5 mm Ridable, outdoor gauge, named according to the gauge in inches, and scale in inches per foot, for example 7 + 1 ⁄ 4 in (184 mm) gauge, 1.5 inch scale. The gauge is 7 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (190.5 mm) in the US and Canada, where the scale sometimes is 1.6 inch for diesel-type models. Private and public (club) tracks exist in many ...
