The definition of a Sun Dial is simple, it measures time according to the position of the sun.
Standard sun dials cast a shadow on to a flat surface marked with each hour of the day. When the sun changes position, the shadow covers up more of the dial. Although that is the most widely seen sun dial, you can have a sun dial designed for any surface that can cast a predictable shadow.
