      ab: The article focuses on two companies which have teamed up to sell a combined software/hardware solution that automates the creation of as-built floor plans using wireless technology. Laser measurements are collected with the Leica DISTO device. The spatial information is communicated via a Bluetooth connection to a Pocket PC, tablet PC, or laptop computer, where the PowerCAD SiteMaster software transforms the information into AutoCAD-compatible drawings. The companies say the system can be operated by a single person and is capable of producing as-built floor plans from site measurements up to 10 times faster compared to conventional methods involving those lowly low-tech tools, measuring tapes, paper, and pencil.
