Field notes
The simulator menu spans instrument reading and shop-floor analysis: depth micrometers, dial indicators, calibration curves, Gauge R&R, and tolerance stack-ups. The concepts section links traceability from SI definitions through national institutes, accredited labs, and working standards to an instrument. The homepage describes the explainers as grounded in the GUM and VIM; it also says the virtual instrument exercises provide instant feedback without using scrap parts.
