Answer: a desktop computer tower measures 45 cm (height), which is 1.2× as big as the reference, a PlayStation 5 at 39 cm.
Tower cases are sized around the motherboard, a standard barely changed since 1995.
Common miss: players tend to compress a desktop computer tower when it sits beside a PlayStation 5 — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: a camera drone measures 35 cm (length / span), which is almost exactly the same size as the reference, a laptop computer at 35 cm.
Measured diagonally between motors, the dimension most drone regulations use.
Common miss: players tend to inflate a camera drone when it sits beside a laptop computer — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: a computer keyboard measures 44 cm (length / span), which is almost exactly the same size as the reference, a domestic cat at 46 cm.
Full-size boards owe their width to the number pad; tenkeyless models lose about 10 cm.
Common miss: players tend to inflate a computer keyboard when it sits beside a domestic cat — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: a laptop computer measures 35 cm (length / span), which is almost exactly the same size as the reference, a large pizza at 35.6 cm.
Measured across the closed lid, not along the screen’s diagonal.
Common miss: players tend to inflate a laptop computer when it sits beside a large pizza — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: a mirrorless camera measures 13 cm (length / span), which is about 1.2× smaller than the reference, a game controller at 16 cm.
Dropping the mirror box let camera bodies shrink by about a third.
Common miss: players tend to inflate a mirrorless camera when it sits beside a game controller — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
