In the video, a person is holding a digital caliper and using it to measure a piece of metal. The caliper is black and has a digital display that shows the measurement in millimeters. The person is holding the caliper with one hand and using the other hand to adjust the jaws of the caliper to get an accurate measurement. The background is blurred, but it appears to be a workshop or garage setting. The person's movements are deliberate and precise as they take the measurement.
