An accelerometer-based ruler. Finally a useful "tape measure" is available for the iPod Touch and iPhone!

• AccelaRuler 1.0 was an Apple Staff Favorite, and AccelaRuler 2.0 is even better!

• #5 "iPhone Apps for the Home", Newsday

• "There are certainly times when a quick-and-dirty estimate of the size of a flat surface is all you need, and AccelaRuler can deliver that", MacWorld

Its easier to see than to explain -- to watch the video and see AccelaRuler in action, just search for "accelaruler" on YouTube, or visit accelaruler.com

There is a little bit of technique involved, so PLEASE watch the tutorial video and follow the instructions. There is also a video tutorial under the info button in the app itself.

Unlike other measuring applications, AccelaRuler is not just a tiny picture of an even tinier ruler. AccelaRuler measures real things in the real world using sophisticated processing and your built-in accelerometer to estimate distances. AccelaRuler can be used to measure distances ranging from a couple of inches to 10 feet or more. Measurement accuracy is up to 2% of the actual distance, and AccelaRuler will estimate any error range for you.

• Measures distances from a few inches to 10 feet or more

• New feature -- AccelaRuler now measures angles!

• Measures and converts between inches, feet, and meters

• New measurement history feature remembers recent measurements

• Perform calculations including perimeter, area, and average distance with the tap of a finger

Note that AccelaRuler is designed to estimate distances while sliding on flat surfaces. It will not work well carried in your hand.
