  2. Inclinometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inclinometer

    Typical advantages of using two-axis MEMS inclinometers over conventional single-axis "bubble" or mechanical leveling instruments may include: Simultaneous measurement of two-dimensional (X-Y plane) tilt angles (i.e. pitch & roll), can eliminate tedious swapping back-and-forth experienced when using a single-axis level, for example to adjust ...

  3. Tiltmeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiltmeter

    A newer technology using microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) sensors enables tilt angle measuring tasks to be performed conveniently in both single and dual axis mode. Ultra-high precision 2-axis MEMS driven digital inclinometer/ tiltmeter instruments are available for speedy angle measurement applications and surface profiling requiring very ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_anatomical_position

    The standard anatomical position, or standard anatomical model, is the scientifically agreed upon reference position for anatomical location terms.Standard anatomical positions are used to standardise the position of appendages of animals with respect to the main body of the organism.

    To do this, distinct ends of an organism are chosen, and the axis is named according to those directions. An organism that is symmetrical on both sides has three main axes that intersect at right angles. [3] An organism that is round or not symmetrical may have different axes. [3] Example axes are: The anteroposterior axis [8] The cephalocaudal ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatomy

    The discipline of anatomy can be subdivided into a number of branches, including gross or macroscopic anatomy and microscopic anatomy. [9] Gross anatomy is the study of structures large enough to be seen with the naked eye, and also includes superficial anatomy or surface anatomy, the study by sight of the external body features.

  9. Axis (anatomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axis_(anatomy)

    In anatomy, the axis (from Latin axis, "axle") is the second cervical vertebra (C2) of the spine, immediately inferior to the atlas, upon which the head rests. The spinal cord passes through the axis. The defining feature of the axis is its strong bony protrusion known as the dens, which rises from the superior aspect of the bone.
