About this app

Stroboscope app for measuring rotating, vibrating, oscillating or reciprocating objects.
It is most commonly used for:
- adjusting speed of rotation - for example adjusting speed of rotation of turntable
- adjusting frequency of vibration

How to use:
1. Start app
2. Set frequency of strobe light (in Hz) using number pickers
3. Press ON/OFF button to start the strobe light

- use button [x2] to double the frequency
- use button [1/2] to halve the frequency
- use button [50 Hz] to set frequency to 50 Hz. This is for turntable speed adjustment.
- use button [60 Hz] to set frequency to 60 Hz. This is also for turntable adjustment.
- activate duty cycle by checking [DUTY CYCLE] check box and adjust duty cycle in percentage. Duty cycle is the percentage of time per cycle when the flash light is on.
- optionally you can calibrate the app by starting calibration from MENU - Calibrate. It is good to do calibration when frequency is changed. You can also set correction time manually in Settings.


Accuracy of the app depends on latency of your device flash light.

Ratings and reviews

Great little app! The strobe light on my turntable burned out and all of the lights in my house are LED. I was able to use this app to adjust the speed.

Nice idea and UI, but I doubt accuracy a lot. It flashed 42 times in a minute, when I set it to 1Hz

Impressively accurate strobe light compared to other apps. Perfect to measure electric motor rpm. The only app I've found that can actually measure rpm.
