  2. 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.

  3. Least count - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_Count

    A metre ruler may have graduations at 1 mm division scale spacing or interval. A vernier scale on a caliper may have a least count of 0.1 mm while a micrometer may have a least count of 0.01 mm or 10 microns.

  4. Calipers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calipers

    A vernier caliper clamping on an object. Caliper(s) or calliper(s) are an instrument used to measure the linear dimensions of an object or hole; namely, the length, width, thickness, diameter or depth of an object or hole. The word "caliper" comes from a corrupt form of caliber. [1] [2] [3]

  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. 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 ...

  7. Rotating calipers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_calipers

    The complete "rotation" of the caliper around the polygon detects all antipodal pairs; the set of all pairs, viewed as a graph, forms a thrackle. The method of rotating calipers can be interpreted as the projective dual of a sweep line algorithm in which the sweep is across slopes of lines rather than across x - or y -coordinates of points.
