La idea de esta regla es mezclar el diseño y concepto tradicional que uno entiende por regla pero a la vez utilizar las ventajas que puede ofrecer una interfaz digital. Por ejemplo, en la misma regla puede reprogramarse el “cero”, pudiendo fijar una nueva medida para calcular distancias entre un punto y otro de manera más fácil. Esto lleva a que los cálculos que hay que hacer son mínimos, dando un uso más rápido, práctico y divertido a la regla. Diseñado por Shay Shafranek.
[English readers - Quoted from the designers presentation] Electronic ruler. The idea behind this rules is combining values of a traditional ruler, with advantages of a digital interface. One of this advantages is a dinamic “zero” point which sets in a new position for every measurement and stays there until being reset. The need of calculations is reduced at minimun and the usage becomes fun, simple and practical. Designed by Shay Shafranek.

At first I wanted just wanted to call this over-indulgent and unnecessary. Then after thinking about with some more advanced manufacturing and technology options you might have something. E-paper in a nice shell might do very well here and easily switch between all the major measurement systems (imperial, metric, picas, points, etc).
This is great! I am a graphic designer/student, and I can’t tell you how useful this is! Please make it in 18 and 24 inches, cork-backed and metal…. PLEASE!!!! You will sell them by the millions if you do.

I think the present digital Vernier can do all these things, in a bit clunkier, at times more practical, package.
I study architecture, and this would be really useful!
