Iresizer review vs photo scissors 6.05/16/2023 ![]() ![]() Selecting “New Project” on the main screen brings up a window that allows creating a new project (right screenshot above). ![]() By selecting the unit label on the main screen (“Inch” in this case), a dropdown menu appears that allows changing units (middle screenshot above). Some rudimentary drawing tools are provided to allow modification to the imported scans. The main screen is a drawing grid (screenshot on the left above) that can be used to manually create diagrams, or modify imported scans (from the Point Scanner or Curve Scanner modes). The ENG option scales 1″ up to feet (250 ft maximum). In US mode, the ARCH option scales fractional inches up to a foot. This provides different choices for scaling options in the “Scale Ruler” mode. These represent US (aka English) or metric units in either Architectural or Engineering scales. Scales – Allows selecting one of four types of scale options US-ARCH, US-ENG, METRIC-ARCH, and METRIC-ENG. Units – Allows choosing one of two options mm,cm,m (metric units), and in,ft,yd (English units) The “ Settings” option provides three screens for adjustment of the device options: This could be used to measure the height or width of a component indirectly.Īrea Mode – This will calculate the area of a rectangular shape based on two measurements. Pythagorean – This allows determination of the third side of a right triangle based on two measurements. The device also has two “ Pro-Laser” modes of operation: Note that a straight edge protractor attachment is also available to allow direct measurement without the laser (this attachment has to be purchased separately from Hozo Design). Protractor – This mode allows measurement of an angle based on movement of the rotating wheel using the laser as a reference point. Level – This mode is a two dimensional bubble level when the device is sitting flat on a surface, or a one dimensional level when on its side. The scan can be exported from the device to the app. The scan can be exported from the device to the app.Ĭurve Scanner – Similar to the point scanner, this mode utilizes the tripod to map a 2-D curved shape by rotating the device. Point Scanner – This mode utilizes the tripod and allows creating a point by point 2-D scan of a room by rotating the device. This mode of operation could be used to convert a measurement on a scale drawing with various scale settings to a different length (probably only useful for scale drawings with no dimensions or smaller items that would be up-scaled to a larger size). Scale Ruler – This mode allows taking measurements using the rolling wheel and will automatically convert the measurement into different English and metric units or different scales. Laser Measure – This is the basic mode that uses the laser to take a single real-time distance measurement. The MEAZOR 6-in-1 Laser Measure tool has six primary modes of operation described below. The tool is powered by a rechargeable battery and can be connected to an app for downloading measurements via Bluetooth. In addition to these six basic features, the device all has two additional “Pro” functions that will perform rectangular area measurement and a “Pythagorean” mode that will calculate the third side of a triangular measurement. The MEAZOR performs six main measurement functions distance measurement, level measurement, angle measurement, 2D floorplan scanning, scale unit measurement and conversion, and curve scanning. ![]() The MEAZOR 6-In-1 Compact Laser Measure tool is a portable device that uses a diode laser to allow precise measurements to be made quickly. Bosch is the gold standard when it comes to small laser measuring devices, so I am interested to see how the MEAZOR “measures up” to the Bosch (pun intended). But considering that it might be time for an upgrade, I jumped at the chance to try the MEAZOR 6-In-1 Compact Laser Measure tool made by Hozo Design. Six years later, it still works great and it is my go-to laser measuring tool. REVIEW – I previously had the opportunity (several years ago) to review the Bosch GLM 50 C laser measuring tool.
