摘要

The digital display has become so much a part of our life, I wonder what the world would do without it. First it was watches. Everyone had to have a digital model even though you can get a faster indication of the time with a fleeting glance at an analog model because you actually have to read and process the numbers on a digital display. What's in is not necessarily what's best. Metrology is one of many fields that has felt the impact of digital displays and measuring systems—for better or worse.
