Video Measure DescriptionVideo Measure allows to measure height, length, width and distance of objects seen in the camera. While you look at your camera preview, Video Measure overlays a grid or frame with measurement of width, length, distance and height. Without any tape measure you can easily measure walls, buildings or whatever. This app is a must for architects, booth builders, craftsmen, handymen, landscapers and technique keen individuals who need to quickly measure things without having their tape measure at hand. Video Measure is the first 'live view' measure - app in the market. Watch a video of Video Measure here: http://www.cneubauer.net/en/VidoMeasureThe feature that distinguishes Video Measure from similar apps is, that all happens live on your display. Neither you need to take photos and later on make measurement on them nor do you need any length or height reference frames in the camera image. This allows to measure height, length, width and distance even of public buildings without any restrictions. How does it work ... 3 simple steps1. Configure: Video Measure is based on the viewing height while you use your iPhone. Therefore you need to configure this height once. It can be setup in the "Settings".2. Calibrate: Video Measure needs to be calibrated once before every measurement. During calibration it computes your distance from the object to measure. Sounds complicated, but isn't. You simply push and hold the "Loupe-Button" and align the object's bottom edge right in front of you along with the line shown in the loupe. Once aligned release the button. That's it.3. Measure: Once you release the "Loupe-Button" a grid or frame - depending on the mode chosen - is overlayed into your camera view. You can pan and pinch the grid or frame to match with the object to measure. Featured measurements Height measure Width measure Length measure Distance measure (like tape measure) Measure units in meter or imperial units No tape measure needed, just your iPhone Pro VersionIn the free version of Video Measure some measurement features are locked. They become available in the Video Measure Pro: Enable frame mode for direct measurement of height, length and width Photo-Button for documentation of your scenes including measurement results Shifting and scaling operations via pan/pinch LimitationsThis app is not suited for applications where very exact measurement is needed, e.g. in construction. Do not use it where exact length, distance, height or width measurement are required. In such cases please use a traditional tape measure! It is however perfect for estimates of room size, furniture size, picture size, building size measurement etc.
