Various models of blood pressure monitors. They resemble small-to-medium-sized rectangular electronic devices with LCD display panels and various menu buttons. They are shown next to arm cuffs. One model is also pictured next to a smartphone with a companion tracking app displaying the results on-screen. Three models are white (two with color display screens); and a fourth model is off-white and grey.

Blood pressure monitors allow users to easily record their blood pressure at home. Most at-home devices are automatic and do not require users to hand-pump the device—simply strap on the included arm cuff and press a button to activate the monitor.

Various models of thermometers. All models have digital display screens, and three devices are long and rectangular. One has a pointed end for gauging body temperature. Another has an end that resembles a barcode scanner. The food thermometer has a long, thin metal probe. The fourth model is a small-sized and square electronic device with display panel that features a built-in kickstand. One model is yellow; another is white with blue trim; a third is black with red trim; and the fourth is black.

There are many different kinds of thermometers, from fever thermometers, to food thermometers, to outdoor temperature thermometers. Many models offer accessibility features, such as large, easy-to-see digital screens and talking thermometers.

Various models of digital indicators. They resemble small, round electronic devices with LCD digital display panels and small menu buttons on the front. They have small, thin probes resembling drill bits running down the center of the devices. One device is dark grey; one is green; one is grey and black; and a fourth is white and black.

Digital indicators are measuring tools that allow users to capture highly accurate measurements of small distances or the thickness of an object.

Digital timers allow users to easily record time without manually winding a timer up, as with analogue models. They feature simple menus with LED displays and loud audio alarms for when the time is done.

Various models of digital kitchen scales. They resemble standard flat kitchen scales, but with large LED display panels with digital readouts. One scale resembles a bamboo cutting board with a digital panel on the bottom. Another is oval instead of square. Three models are black.

Digital kitchen scales instantly display the weight of food items, so users do not have to visually read and gauge the results, as with analogue scales.

Various models of digital rulers. They resemble standard rulers, but with two caliper "prongs" that grasp an object or mark the endpoint. They also have a non-color display screen that displays measurements along the side of the ruler (facing upwards toward the viewer for easy visibility). All models shown are stainless steel.

Digital rulers allow users to measure a given distance or object without needing to visually read and interpret a ruler.

Various models of digital measuring tapes. Three resemble standard measuring tapes, but with digital display screens and a set of menu buttons. One of these is small and long, while the others are larger, with one being round and the third being square. The fourth model is a small, long, and rectangular device (similar to a small, first-generation iPod) with a display screen and menu buttons. This model has no measuring tape. Two models are black with yellow tape; one is red; the fourth is red and black.

Digital measuring tapes allow users to measure distance without visually marking the endpoint and reading the distance marked on the tape. Instead, the device displays the distance on a small digital screen.
