Abstract: An object orientation indicator for indicating the orientation of an object, such as the vertical positioning of an object to be inserted or being inserted into a surface. The object orientation indicator is configured to determine or indicate when an object being inserted into a surface parallel or non-parallel to the ground is vertically level, i.e. perpendicular to the ground. The object orientation indicator may also be configured to determine or indicate if a preexisting vertical object inserted into a surface parallel or non-parallel to the ground remains in its originally inserted orientation. The object orientation indicator may include a housing assembly and a display panel.
