The *Kapali Yantra* at Jantar Mantar, a renowned astronomical observatory built by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II in the 18th century, is a unique and specialized instrument. It is a hemispherical sundial, designed to determine the exact positions of celestial bodies and measure time with precision. The instrument consists of a concave hemisphere, often compared to a bowl, with marked angular scales and lines that help astronomers track the movement of the sun and other celestial objects. A central rod or gnomon casts shadows on the hemisphere, and the angles of the shadows are used for astronomical calculations. This yantra is part of the broader array of sophisticated instruments at Jantar Mantar, showcasing the advanced understanding of astronomy and engineering in pre-modern India.

The Jai Prakash Yantra at Jantar Mantar consists of two complementary concave hemispherical structures, forming a bowl-like shape with marked scales and fine lines. These markings represent celestial coordinates, allowing for precise observations of the sun, moon, and stars. The instrument features a metal crosswire or sighting mechanism that casts shadows or reflections onto the marked surfaces. Astronomers used it to determine the positions of celestial bodies, measure time, and align other instruments accurately. The Jai Prakash Yantra's design demonstrates Jai Singh's ingenuity and deep understanding of astronomical principles, serving as both a scientific tool and a testament to the advanced knowledge of Indian astronomy.

The *Rashi Valaya Yantra* at Jantar Mantar is a set of twelve sundials, each representing one of the zodiac signs (**Rashi**). These instruments are positioned to correspond with the specific orientation of the sun as it moves through each zodiac sign over the year. Each sundial is finely calibrated to measure the solar time and track the sun’s movement relative to a specific zodiac segment. Together, the Rashi Valaya Yantra serves as an effective tool for determining the sun's celestial position and for making astrological calculations. It highlights the integration of astronomy and astrology in Indian scientific traditions.
