2. Indicator (distance amplifying instrument) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indicator_(distance...

   Ideal test indicator pushed. Prior to modern geared dial mechanisms, test indicators using a single lever or systems of levers were common. The range and precision of these devices were generally inferior to modern dial type units, with a range of 10/1000 inch to 30/1000 inch, and precision of 1/1000 inch being typical.

   feeler gauge: gap widths forward looking infrared (FLIR) detects infrared energy (heat)converts it into an electronic signal, which is then processed to produce a thermal image on a video monitor and perform temperature calculations. framing square: right angles in construction frequency counter: frequency of alternating current: fuel gauge ...

4. Calipers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calipers

   Digital caliper. Rather than a rack and pinion, digital calipers use a linear encoder. A liquid-crystal display shows the measurement, which often can switch units between millimeters and fractional or decimal inches. All provide for zeroing the display at any point along the slide, allowing the same sort of differential measurements as with ...

   Measuring and fine tuning the angle of line array speaker hangs. Confirmation of the angle achieved via use of a laser built into the remote inclinometer. Setting correct orientation of solar panels while installing; Setting firing angle of a cannon or gun (determines projectile range) Electronic games; Help prevent unsafe working conditions. [6]

7. Autocollimator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autocollimator

   An autocollimator works by projecting an image onto a target mirror and measuring the deflection of the returned image against a scale, either visually or by means of an electronic detector. A visual autocollimator can measure angles as small as 1 arcsecond (4.85 microradians), while an electronic autocollimator can have up to 100 times more ...
