Abstract
A laser level containing a housing, an electronic tilt sensor located in the housing; a controller to which the electronic tilt sensor is connected, and a laser module. The controller is communicable with a first display device and a second display device. The laser line is adapted to project a straight ground laser line on a flat surface. The electronic tilt sensor is adapted to detect a tilt of the laser level and provide a measurement signal to the controller. The controller is adapted to provide a display signal to the first and second display devices to display information about the tilt. By using an electronic tilt sensor, the laser level can provide accurate indicate of the tilt of the device and also allows such tilt information to be processed further.
