Altimeter | A Device that measures the vertical distance to the some reference point of the surface below. This may be the mean sea level or the actual surface of the earth. |
| AntibodyCOVIDTest | An antigen is the part of a pathogen that elicits an immune response. Antigen tests look for antigen proteins from the viral surface. In the case of a coronavirus, these are usually proteins from the surface spikes. SARS-CoV-2 antigens can be detected before onset of COVID-19 symptoms (as soon as SARS-CoV-2 virus particles) with more rapid test results, but with less sensitivity than PCR tests for the virus.[from Wikipedia] |
| BimetalTemperatureSensor | Two metals bonded together that have dissimilar thermal expansion properties. This leads to the strip curling one direction or another with changes in TemperatureMeasure, typically activating a switch or other device. |
| Clock | Any Device that measures and represents TimeDuration or TimePosition. |
| FeelerGauge | A Device used to measure small gaps. It is typically a Collection of several such gauges of varying thicknesses that a user places into the gap until one is found that fits with slight resistence, which indicates a good assessment of the size of the gap. A typical use is measure the gap between electrodes of a SparkPlug. |
| FitbitDevice | A WearableItem made by FitbitCompany. |
| Hydrometer | A MeasuringDevice that is used in Measuring the DensityFn of a liquid, usually with respect to Water. |
| MassAirflowSensor | A Device that measures the amount of Air flowing to the throttle body in a fuel injection system. It sends this information to the EngineControlModule. |
| OxygenSensor | A sensor that measures Oxygen. Typically it is to measure the Exhaust of an Automobile. More oxygen signals a lean fuel mixture, and less a rich one. |
| PressureMeasuringDevice | Any Device that measures and represents PressureMeasure. |
| RTPCRTest | Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) is a laboratory technique combining reverse transcription of RNA into DNA (in this context called complementary DNA or cDNA) and amplification of specific DNA targets using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). It is primarily used to measure the amount of a specific RNA. This is achieved by monitoring the amplification reaction using fluorescence, a technique called real-time PCR or quantitative PCR (qPCR). Combined RT-PCR and qPCR are routinely used for analysis of gene expression and quantification of viral RNA in research and clinical settings.[from Wikipedia] |
| SnellenChart | A chart of letters, that appear random, used for measuring visual acuity. |
| Tachometer | A Device for Measuring the number of RevolutionsPerMinute of an object, typically an Engine Crankshaft. |
| TestForm | A FormText which is intended to measure some aspect of the cognitive capabilities, e.g. intelligence or knowledge of a domain, of the person taking the test. |
| Thermometer | Any Device that measures and represents TemperatureMeasure. |
| TorqueWrench | A Wrench that measures the amount of force applied, typically in pound-feet or Newton-meters. |
| VacuumGauge | A MeasuringDevice that measures the degree of Vacuum, relative to the surrounding air pressure. |
