Calipers measure the distance between two opposing sides of an object. They make inside, outside, depth, or step measurements, according to their type. The simplest calipers have two legs to mark the two points and require a ruler to take the measurement. More complex calipers use two sets of jaws instead of legs and have up to two graduated scales. Vernier, dial, and digital calipers give direct and accurate readings and are functionally identical, having a calibrated scale with a fixed jaw, and another jaw with a movable pointer that slides along the scale. Calipers are commonly used in architecture, metalworking, mechanical engineering, and machining.
