摘要

Sundials, ancient timekeeping devices, require precise calibration for accurate time measurement. Technological advancements have significantly evolved calibration methods, now including widely available remote calibration techniques. This scientific paper delves into the uniqueness of the world’s largest gnomon sundials at Jantar Mantar, Jaipur, India. It examines the various methods and factors involved in sundial calibration and details the remote calibration technique used to assess the performance of this archaeological marvel. The paper also discusses the calibration results, offering insights that may aid researchers, horologists, and enthusiasts in enhancing the functionality and reliability of sundials in both historical and contemporary contexts.
