    en.wikipedia.org/.../Using_the_caliper

    Using a vernier caliper to take measurements on a nut. The 1st two digits are decided by the location of the 0 on the lower scale. The last digit is determined by the 1st line on the lower scale that exactly matches the upper scale.

  3. Vernier scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vernier_scale

    Vernier caliper scales; main at top, vernier at bottom. It reads 3.58 ± 0.02 mm by adding 3.00 mm (left red mark) on the fixed main scale to vernier 0.58 mm (right red mark). The main scale reading is that to the left of the zero on the vernier scale. The vernier reading is found by locating the best aligned lines between the two scales.

  4. Pierre Vernier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_Vernier

    The main scale reading is the rightmost graduation that is to the left of the zero on the vernier scale. The vernier reading is found by locating the best aligned lines between the two scales. The 0.02 mm engraving indicates the caliper's accuracy and is the "Vernier constant" for this scale. He was born in Ornans, France, in 1580. He was ...

  5. Vernier acuity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vernier_acuity

    Vernier acuity is measured by asking participants to judge the offset between two parallel line segments with both eyes (binocular vision) or with each eye individually (monocular vision). [10] Vernier measures in infants and non-verbal children can be done using the preferential-looking technique [11] or by electrophysiological techniques. [12 ...

  6. Rotating calipers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_calipers

    In computational geometry, the method of rotating calipers is an algorithm design technique that can be used to solve optimization problems including finding the width or diameter of a set of points. The method is so named because the idea is analogous to rotating a spring-loaded vernier caliper around the outside of a convex polygon . [ 1 ]

  9. Least count - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_Count

    The stopwatch is more precise at measuring time intervals than the sundial because it has more "counts" (scale intervals) in each hour of elapsed time. Least count of an instrument is one of the very important tools in order to get accurate readings of instruments like vernier caliper and screw gauge used in various experiments.
