The Samrat Yantra also called as “Supreme Instrument” is an sundial of enormous size . The Samrat Yantra at Jaipur is capable of measuring time to an accuracy of two seconds. Since a sundial gives the exact time for its particular locality only, a formula to obtain standard time is used that compensates for the longitude difference between the instrument location and its time zone, and the daily adjustment that must be made due to the earth’s orbit around the sun.
