Measurement Specialties manufactures Schaevitz® AccuStar™ electronic clinometers and AngleStar™ electronic protractor systems which use capacitance-based sensors for the precise measurement of level, angle or tilt. These unique, patented designs feature a wide range of performance parameters, interface options and price alternatives. These rugged sensors can withstand high levels of shock and vibration that might destroy a MEMS-type device. They also have very high accuracy, especially around zero degrees, which makes them ideal for leveling applications. Uses include construction equipment, tipover protection, antenna positioning, vehicle testing and car alarms, aerospace and robotics.
