Strobr Scope vs Camera RPM Meter

Strobr Scope is a camera-based stroboscope app that relies on continuously variable frame rates to measure the frequencies of cycles. A traditional stroboscope flashes bright lights at a specific frequency that can be easily matched to the rotational frequency of i.e. a car wheel using persistence of vision (POV), allowing the rotational speed to be measured. Strobr Scope works similarly, but can also measure many things like electrical light frequencies and very low slow rotations that a traditional stroboscope cannot. It’s also more convenient and much less distracting to others! This app was built at PennApps 2017 and won top 30 there.

How it works: With Camera: First, mark the edge of the machine whose rotational speed you want to find. Please make sure that the machine is properly visible in the camera preview. Now, go to the app, open camera RPM and adjust the RPM using the plus, minus buttons or seek bar on the screen. Now adjust the RPM unless the rotating machine becomes stationary in the camera preview. Read the value from the input field; this is the RPM of your rotating machine. With Strobe Light First, mark the edge of the machine whose rotational speed you want to find. Ensure that the machine is placed in suitable darkness. Now, go to the app, turn it on and set the approximate value of RPM using the Plus, minus button or seek bar in the strobe light module of the app. Focus your flashlight on the rotating machine, then adjust the RPM using the bar up or down until the mark on the machine appears stationary. Read the value from the input field; this is the RPM of your rotating machine. Features of the RPM Meter - Strobe Lights: • Simple and smooth interface • Check RPM using mobile camera • Check RPM using Strobe light • Easy-to-use app with a user-friendly design • Compact app size • No internet connectivity needed • On/off button functions like a torch • RPM Meter – Strobe Light can be used as a torchlight • Strobe light mode works like a stroboscope. • The strobe light speed can be set in different ways, such as using seek bar or plus/minus buttons in the app.
