Hello,

This time, I would like to present you this small Spirit Level.

Three modes:

- Bull's eye mode, that indicates angles should you like to tilt your plane in purpose:

- Carpenter's mode, that also indicates the angles

- Carpenter's mode with camera view, should you need not to put your device against the objects to be measured:

- Calibration feature

The app is available in english and french.

Hardware requirements:
- Digital compass
- Accelerometer
- Camera

This app is free. Here is the QR code:

Have a nice day,

[edit 2010-12-16] added calibration feature
 
Hi everyone,

This short post to let you know that the version 1.3 was released today.
It includes a calibration feature (I have received plenty of requests about this) and some bugfixes.

Have a nice day,
Shlublu
 
Very cool! Works great...I don't have a need for it yet, but it was fun to play with and it will be very handy when I do. Love the camera / grid overlay--can't wait to check all of the pictures in the house, lol :).

Thanks for such a cool app!
 
Thanks a lot Scary Alien!
So, are your pictures aligned? ;)

I was suggested to prevent the screen to dim and eventually shut down in camera mode. This is probably something I'll add as an optional feature.
Zoom and forced calibration at first run time are also on the wish list.

I'll let you know!
Have a nice day

lol, I want my wife to help me check the pictures with it so she'll see what a cool app it is and how much I really need my Android phone(s) :D -- "see honey, how useful this is?" ;)

I've written a couple of apps and very much appreciate the work you must have put into this. Must be pretty cool to do something with the camera like this...great job!

Cheers and have a happy holiday!
