1. Clinometers measure both inclines (positive slopes, as seen by an observer looking upwards) and declines (negative slopes, as seen by an observer looking downward) using two different metrics roll and pitch.
2. An inclinometer is an instrument used for measuring angles of slope (or tilt), elevation, or depression of an object with respect to gravity's direction.
3. Use it to measure inclination with any side of your phone or remotly when using the camera.
4. Holding your phone screen perpendicular to the floor will give you a pitch close to zero.
5. This is the rotation of the phone around the axis perpendicular to the device screen.
6. This is the angle between a plane perpendicular to the device's screen and a plane parallel to the ground.
7. Use it to measure a surface slope when you phone is landing on that surface or an object elevation when using the camera.
1. Its downfall is that the measurements lag behind the movement of the phone by several seconds, making it very annoying to use (measurements may not stabilize for 5-10s)Forward facing camera and determination of angle through lock button should work great for avoiding avalanches.
2. Good job devs!This app is exactly what I'm looking for: simple, free, shows the camera view so that I can measure slope inclinations accurately.
3. This looks to replicate it and help avoid slopes above 30 degrees that can slide while being at the top of the slope.first clinometer that uses the front camera and sights through preview.
4. Could do with configurations.Good App! Simple but does the job! Operates smoothly unlike some other apps I tried.
5. However when measuring inclination with phone on edge the phone in portrait is zero instead of the left edge as expected.
6. I want to measure the angle between two planes, so it would be useful to place on one plane, reset to zero and move to the second plane.
7. For my purposes, checking slopes on tracks for accessibility, the logical way to use the phone is long side to the ground.
8. yay.Pretty bare bones , so nothing to screw up ,so far works 100% not a single issue at allSimple once you get the basic concept.
9. Thus an option to choose one or other data stream, or both, would be good.
10. Worth testing.Very clean app, but I'm unable to use it for some basic tasks (could.benuser error).
11. Also in AR mode it only provides a virtual moving vertical, not a horizontal which is required for shelves or picture hanging.
