Digital verniers have been around for while now, just as commonn as typoe with a dial. Very accurate and easier to use then dial vernier caliper.


Gotta disagree with you, Joe. A caliper is either digital or it's vernier, not both. "Vernier" is a specific technology for visually interpolating a measurement that falls between the scale demarcations on the caliper rule. "Digital vernier" is a contradiction in terminology, and a perversion of the language probably concocted by some marketing bozo to sell these instruments to the uninitiated. Yeah, I know they are cataloged by some outfits as digital vernier calipers, but they are just wrong.
