A method of performing geometrical measurements of remote objects includes performing a laser sweep of a measurement object with a handheld sensor device including a distance measurement unit and an inertial measurement unit. The method includes activating the distance measurement unit to perform a plurality of distance measurements during the laser sweep, and activating the inertial measurement unit to perform an inertial measurement in association with each of the distance measurements. A processor is used to process the distance measurements with reference to the associated inertial measurements to determine a geometric characteristic of the measurement object.

A method for generating a floor plan of a room uses a mobile electronic device and a range finder to produce approximate and modified floor plans. The method includes receiving a plurality of strokes corresponding to walls in a room with a gesture input device, generating an approximate floor plan of the room based on the strokes, generating an approximate floor plan of the room with reference to the plurality of strokes, receiving an input gesture corresponding to one wall in the approximate floor plan of the room for measurement, receiving measurement data from a range finder corresponding to a dimension of the selected one wall, modifying the approximate floor plan with reference to the measurement data from the range finder, and generating with a display of the modified floor plan of the room.

A measurement apparatus for automatic three-dimensional measurement of space includes a camera sensor array that is configured to generate low-resolution video recordings. The camera sensor array is further configured to automatically generate high-resolution images at geometrically suitable positions in the space. Automatic recording of the high-resolution images is based on a three-dimensional real-time reconstruction of the video recordings. A measurement system includes the measurement apparatus and a corresponding method is implemented for the automatic three-dimensional measurement of the space.

A manual distance measuring apparatus includes at least one computing unit, an image acquisition means and a laser measuring device, which determines a distance of a measurement point on a measurement object in a measurement direction during a measuring process. The computing unit is configured to control, at least by open-loop control, the measurement direction depending at least on an output characteristic variable of the image acquisition means.
