For over 15-years, Leica Geosystems have lead the laser measuring market through their Leica DISTO™ range by incorporating cutting edge technology, the best build quality and supported by excellent customer service.
Several years ago, Leica Geosystems enhanced the Leica DISTO™ range by incorporating the Bluetooth wireless networking chip into several instruments. This allows the Leica DISTO™ to communicate with other devices and transfer wireless their measuring data.
Originally users operated software through Windows powered PCs, laptops and PDA devices, in order to run high powered applications like AutoCAD. They are excellent for office applications but not very mobile.
Field operatives are increasingly turning to smaller mobile devices or 'Smartphones', to collect data straight in the field and transmit the data back to the office. The latest models have increased power and performance, allowing software developers to create applications for these platforms.
By far the strongest growing Operating System for smartphones and Tablet PCs is coming from Google through their Android OS system. The growth is tremendous and already last year its market share was becoming the strongest for these product categories.
To keep abreast of technological advances, Leica Geosystems software partners have developed a range of applications which can run through the Android operating systems. With the integration of a Bluetooth wireless device, the Leica DISTO™ can communicate directly with the Android handset or platform, record the measurement and download the data into the chosen program.
Leica Geosystems has recently launched a new version of their DISTO™ transfer for the Android operating system. It can easily be downloaded from the Android Marketplace, just search for “disto” or “disto transfer” and you will find the new Leica DISTO™ program. Of course the download is free.
