Roomscan App
Throw out your rulers and tape measures!
Word on the street is that CAD monkeying could be a thing of the past (Are those sighs we hear from graduate architects?).
There’s a new app on the block for iPhone able to produce floor plans by walking around the room you’re measuring and holding your phone to the walls. It uses motion sensoring and outputs a floor plan to your phone with measured dimensions in seconds.
We wouldn’t advise building your dream home based on plans produced by the Roomscan app but for a quick initial sketch this is brilliant!
There is even a pro version that allows you to input more exact dimensions, doors and windows. Never be caught out again without your tape measure.
Read more about it here and check out the demos at: http://locometric.com/
Download it free from the app store.
Give it a go and let us know what you think – life changing or disappointing gimmick?
