A grav scale is an extension of [[gravity control technology]], and the [[densitometer]]. Essentially a short range densitometer capable of doing accurate mass measurements in 3 dimensions to a range of 4 meters. The device itself consists of a large (2m x 4m) rigid mat with a computerized control panel. Objects to be weighed must fit over the scale, though the computer system is capable of handling larger objects rolling over the mat at a slow, constant velocity. The system is calibrated to correctly scan grav vehicles.

A Grav Scale is an extension of gravity control technology, and the densitometer. Essentially a short range densitometer capable of doing accurate mass measurements in 3 dimensions to a range of 4 meters. The device itself consists of a large (2m x 4m) rigid mat with a computerized control panel. Objects to be weighed must fit over the scale, though the computer system is capable of handling larger objects rolling over the mat at a slow, constant velocity. The system is calibrated to correctly scan grav vehicles.
