Yes, creep meters can measure slow and continuous horizontal fault movement by detecting the gradual displacement of two points on opposite sides of a fault. Laser-ranging devices can also measure horizontal fault movement by using laser beams to gauge changes in distance between points on either side of a fault. Both instruments provide valuable data for studying fault behavior.
A creep meter is a wire stretched across a fault to measure the horizontal movement from the ground.

No, a creep meter measures horizontal movement along a fault line caused by tectonic forces. It is used to monitor slow, continuous creep along faults, which can help scientists better understand the strain accumulation and potential for seismic activity in an area.
With a tape measure
The model you are referring to is called a pendulum. In this setup, a weight is hung from a wire or string, and when the weight is displaced horizontally, it oscillates back and forth due to gravity. The motion of the pendulum can be used to detect and measure horizontal movement or acceleration.
The horizontal axis is time. The vertical axis is a measure of something electrical (the wires are connected to electrical contacts on your chest).
