Vernier calipers is more convenient to use compared to the external and internal calipers because vernier caliper by its own could be used as external and internal calipers. When using Vernier caliper you can identify the measurement withtout using ruler, meter stick etc. but the internal and external calipers rely on measuring tools to know the exact measurement... (*Ivan Richmond Jumawan*).
Vernier calipers are precision measuring instruments used to measure the dimensions of an object with high accuracy. They can measure internal and external diameters, depths, and lengths, making them useful in various fields such as engineering, metalworking, and woodworking. The dual scales on the calipers allow for measurements in both metric and imperial units. Their versatility and precision make them essential tools in laboratories and manufacturing settings.
Vernier calipers are used to measure internal diameters due to their precise design, which allows for accurate readings in tight spaces. The caliper features two jaws—one fixed and one movable—that can clamp onto the inner surfaces of a cylindrical object, providing a reliable measurement of the internal diameter. Additionally, the vernier scale enhances measurement accuracy, enabling users to read measurements to a fraction of a millimeter. This makes vernier calipers an essential tool in fields requiring precise measurements, such as engineering and manufacturing.
It can be used to measure internal as well as external dimensions, and depths of features like steps and blind holes, in small components. Nowadays many machinists etc use digital calipers - which are NOT vernier! - that have dual inch/metric units and often dual decimal/vulgar-fraction readings on the inch settings.
There are several conclusion for Vernier calipers. One is that in comparison to other tools like micrometers, they have less accuracy. Regardless, the Vernier calipers seem to allow a larger measurement range leading to better versatility.
A digital vernier is mainly used to measure lengths or distances very accurately. These may be internal or external distances. The distance may be read as either metric or imperial.
A caliper is a tool that can be used to measure both internal and external diameter accurately. It consists of two arms with measuring jaws that can be adjusted to fit the size of the object being measured. The different types of calipers include digital, dial, and Vernier calipers.
Because the secondary scale, which gave the calipers it accuracy, was designed by the French mathematician Pierre Vernier.
I guess it is found by vernier as it works on vernier theory -Manasa
Vernier Caliper are made with different materials even plastic vernier calipers are also available in market however generally stainless steel is used in making of vernier calipers

Vernier calipers are in use in machine shops throughout the world. Of course, they are gradually being replaced by digital calipers but, plenty are still in use in England.
The jaws of the vernier calipers are used to measure the external diameter of a cylinder. The jaws are placed around the object being measured, and the reading is taken from the scale on the main body of the calipers.
The modern vernier caliper reads to thousandths of an inch
Vernier Calipers are instruments that are used measure length. It is an instrument that provides a digit of accuracy.

In case for micrometer, principle of pitch is used. Least count could be even micro meter But in vernier caliper, difference of main scale division and vernier scale division is the principle Least count could be 0.02 mm
