Univerter combines advanced units conversion and calculation abilities into an easy-to use tool for engineers, scientists, or anyone who needs to perform calculations that contain values with differing units. Univerter goes far beyond the simplistic one-to-one units conversion programs that require wading through hundreds of conversion factors -- with Univerter, you simply type equations as you would write them. Univerter actually parses equations into separate words that it then correlates with units and constants that it already recognizes.

What Makes Univerter Different?

There are plenty of units-conversion programs available on the internet. Many advertise that they have several hundred thousand combinations of units-conversions available (including archaic and obsolete units that would only be useful to academics). The better programs even allow you to add your own units to their database. The problem with these programs is that they are generally over-kill when it comes to simple conversions, and inadequate when trying to do something "fancy". If you're trying to enter an unusual combination of units in one of these programs, you will likely find that the combination does not exist.

Univerter was designed with engineers and scientists in mind. It was designed to be an easy and fast tool that wouldn't require a lot of effort to get a quick answer. It already knows every SI unit as well as dozens of non-SI units (including archaic and obsolete units that would only be useful to academics). It recognizes all standard prefixes such as m (milli), c (centi), and k (kilo) and thus can tell that [1 km] = [1000 m]. And if you need a unit that's not included in Univerter's substantial database, you'll never be limited since you can add your own units. For example; create your own unit called an "Arm" by defining [1 Arm = 2.2 ft]. Univerter will automatically understand that [Arm^2] is area, that [Arm/min] is speed, and that [1.2 kArm/min = 30 mph]. Univerter's ability to understand equations is what raises it above other units conversion programs which require each possible units-combination to be pre-defined. So while other programs may brag of being capable of hundreds or thousands of conversions using huge conversion-factor databases, Univerter's capabilities are virtually unlimited with a much smaller customizable database.

But most importantly, Univerter treats every units combination that you enter as an equation. While this won't mean much if you convert [m] to [ft], it makes all the difference in the world when you want to convert [psi] to [kg*m/s^2/in^2]. Of course most people don't deal with such complicated expressions. But that doesn't mean that units equations aren't handy for more mundane situations... [Simple Examples]
