2. Laser rangefinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_rangefinder

   Laser rangefinders are also used in several industries like construction, renovation and real estate as alternatives to tape measures, and was first introduced by Leica Geosystems in 1993 in France. To measure a large object like a room with a tape measure, one would need another person to hold the tape at the far wall and a clear line straight ...

4. List of laser types - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_laser_types

   Laser types with distinct laser lines are shown above the wavelength bar, while below are shown lasers that can emit in a wavelength range. The height of the lines and bars gives an indication of the maximal power/pulse energy commercially available, while the color codifies the type of laser material (see the figure description for details).

5. Tape measure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tape_measure

   Tape measures are often designed for specific uses or trades. Tapes may have different scales, be made of different materials, and be of different lengths depending on the intended use. Tape measures used in tailoring are called "sewing tape". Originally made from flexible cloth or plastic, fiberglass is now the preferred material due to its ...

6. Infrared thermometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_thermometer

   A non-adjustable thermometer may be used to measure the temperature of a reflective surface by applying a non-reflective paint or tape, with some loss of accuracy. [citation needed] A sensor with an adjustable emissivity setting can also be used to calibrate the sensor for a given surface or to measure the emissivity of a surface.

7. Laser level - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_level

   The concept of a laser level has been around since at least the early 1970s, [2] the original spinning-mirror design laser plane and line level was patented by the late 1980s, [3] and the compact lens-based laser line level (as produced by many tool manufacturers today) was patented in the late 1990s. It was invented by Oscar Soliz in the late ...
