Invisible measurements hidden in everyday life We live surrounded by invisible measurements. When you hear “measurement,” you might picture measuring length with a ruler or weighing something on a scale. In fact, in the modern society we live in, everything around us—air, light, temperature, human movement, and more—is being “measured” without us realizing it. The “Invisible Measurements Exhibition,” organized by Azbil, is a special exhibition that shines a light on such measurements that blend into our daily lives.
