Note: Reflecting navigational instruments used for measuring the altitude of celestial bodies and having an arc of 1/8 of a circle, but due to their reflecting properties can measure up to 90 degrees; invented in the 1730s and used into the 19th century when superseded by sextants.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Chinese (traditional) ..... 能反射光線、用來測量天體高度的航海用儀器，其弧狀刻度盤有圓周八分之一長，不過因其反射特性，最大測量角度可達90度；發明於1730年，持續使用直到十九世紀時被六分儀所取代。 |
| Dutch ..... Reflecterende navigatie-instrumenten die werden gebruikt bij het meten van de horizonshoogte van hemellichamen en die een boog hebben van 1/8 van een cirkel maar die door hun reflecterende eigenschappen tot 90 graden kunnen meten; uitgevonden in de jaren 1730 en gebruikt tot in de 19e eeuw toen ze werden vervangen door sextanten. |
| German ..... Spiegelbasiertes Navigationsinstrument zur Höhenbestimmung von Himmelskörpern, mit einem Bogen, der aus einem Achtelkreis besteht, welches aber durch seine Spiegeleigenschaften bis zu 90 Grad messen kann; um 1730 erfunden und bis ins 19. Jahrhundert verwendet, dann vom Sextanten abgelöst. |
| Spanish ..... Instrumentos de navegación reflectantes usados para medir la altitud de cuerpos celestes y con un arco de un octavo de círculo, pero que debido a sus propiedades reflectantes pueden medir hasta 90 grados; inventados en la década de 1730 y usados hasta entrado siglo XIX, cuando fueron reemplazados por el sextante. |
