ABSTRACT:
A digital angle indicator for the measurement of predetermined angles. The indicator comprises a rotatably mounted gravity responsive opaque rotor having transparent slots therein for selectively passing light from light sources to light detectors, said light detectors being connected to a plurality of visual indicators through a digital logic circuit for activating said visual indicators in response to said light detectors. The visual indicators provide an indication of the attainment of the angle being measure and values greater or lesser than the desired angle.
