Measure it
in corn.

Feet are confusing. Pounds are arbitrary. Corn is tangible. Convert everyday measurements into kernels, ears, stalks, bushels, cornfields and other highly questionable agricultural units.

Corn chain

One crop. Entire metric system.

Every category uses a consistent reference constant where possible. When consistency becomes inconvenient, CobMetrics applies advanced agricultural optimism.

βš–οΈ

Weight β†’ Kernels

Convert pounds, kilograms and ounces into estimated individual kernels, ears and bushels.

πŸ“

Distance β†’ Corn

Measure roads, rooms and bad decisions in kernels end to end, ears and stalks.

🌾

Area β†’ Cornfields

Turn acres, square feet and hectares into cornfields and estimated plant capacity.

πŸͺ£

Volume β†’ Bushels

Convert gallons, liters and cubic feet into kernels, ears and bushels of shelled corn.

🏎️

Speed β†’ Kernels/sec

Because β€œ65 mph” tells you considerably less than β€œ3,632 kernels per second.”

πŸ’Ύ

Data β†’ Kernel Storage

Assume one byte per kernel and discover the physical stupidity of cloud storage.

⏱️

Time β†’ Corn Seasons

Measure days, months and years in approximate 90 day growing cycles.

πŸ”₯

Energy β†’ Popcorn Pops

Translate joules and food calories into theoretical popcorn events.

πŸš™

Cargo β†’ Corn Capacity

Enter cargo volume and estimate how much loose corn your vehicle absolutely should not carry.
