True, the actual measuring time may be slower, depending on how much detail you need to get, how intricate your project is, how comfortable you are with these tools, etc. but the trade-off is that you'll be much quicker back in the office because you won't have to import all of your measurements into CAD - these devices take care of that for you with a DXF export. Your measuring accuracy will also be substantially greater than with a tape measure.
En espacios grandes , donde una huincha no tiene posibilidad, este equipo se luce. En cosas de mayor precision, ambito mecánico, medir chutes, formas complejas con angulos en planchas metálicas, pienso que por mi experiencia ,es bueno combinarlo usando un prisma, en especial donde hay bordes que no estan planos y en 90°. Lo comparo con el uso de la plantilla que trae para estos efectos, y que se muestra en algun video midiendo una mesa ovalada.
How much faster is measuring with the 3D disto or even the S910 on a tripod, versus direct measurements with the S910 or any other direct measurement laser measuring device? Thanks
when measuring a roof with S910 it will tell you the exact angle of the roof just from shooting from that spot?? how can it tell how steep the roof is.
if you measure three points of a surface with it, you automatically establish a three dimensional plane. The fourth point is the laser's origin. That will act as a basis of where those 3 readings are in 3D space. To further explain, imagine sticking three sticks of different lengths into the ground. When you connect the top end of those sticks with string, you end up with a triangle. Take the second highest point of that triangle and run a level towards the line opposite of it. When you draw a 90 degree line from that level line towards the higher or lower point, you have the line you can then measure for the plane's slope. Sorry for sounding too convoluted.
The point with the S910 is that it measures point to point. And it can do that because the device both oscillates on a fixed 3D point and tracks the angles and direction you pivot it to get to the next point you're aiming at. That means that it's very accurate with registering points in three dimensional space at a 300 meter distance. You can't do that with a handheld laser measuring device because you can't establish a fixed point from where you're measuring. You might think you can but you're not able to mechanically anchor the device at a 3D point. This device also allows you to measure something without being anywhere near it. If you don't think you need this device, you probably don't have the needs that other technical people have.

The problem is, that the world is a little bit more complicated than those few points,
What if i have to take multiple points with moving the disto to Station to different Location

HI. DO U KNOW WHY WHEN I OPEN DXF FILE ITS NOT CORRECT SCALE? ITS MUCH SMALLER THAN ACTUAL SIZE.
+bayaraa13 try taking measurements in inches only format
+AdvancedDimensions.com settings on tablet?
yes. you can also consult the company you purchased from for further support.
Units u sold have not had problem like this?
