Audio Ruler

The new way of measuring distances with your iPhone

Unusually to other apps, the measurement process is based on the sound. Specifically, the distance traveled by a sound way from point A (phone speaker) to point B (earphones). The algorithm behind the app is fueled by advanced math! It's pure science!

Very interesting – how does this compare to the accuracy of AR ruler apps (like Apple's own iOS Measure app)?

@iamsebj 0.25cm accuracy on Audio ruler right now. It is much more accurate and doesnt need light conditions.

@aczemiel Impressive! Does this work with Bluetooth headphones, like Apple’s AirPods, or do they add too much latency/inaccuracy?

@iamsebj Works with bluetooth headphones. Sometimes when you measure it loses connections but 95% of time it works. Latency/inaccuracy doesn't matter here as we encoded series of signals in one sound wave which should be sent correctly to the headphones.

Hi all, I am not the maker of the app explicitly, but I did develop the algorithm behind it. The main problem was that any delay caused by the device disqualified the result as 1 nanosecond delayed made the measurement inaccurate. I spent 2 years and made the scientific paper on my University which began my adventure with measuring Sound Waves. If there are any people that are sound waves master - we can make many exciting apps together. Next app we will make using the sound algorithms is thermometer. I already have a proof of concept working. Have a nice day y'all!

Audio Ruler is an innovative app that uses advanced algorithms to estimate distance by analyzing sound waves parameters. Audio Ruler provides accurate measurements on both short and long distances. To measure any distance you need: - your iPhone with iOS 13 or later - earphones (works with wireless and regular earphones) - follow the instructions provided in the app Download here: https://apps.apple.com/app/audio...
