Use your DISTO to sketch on your iPad

Did you know you can sync the most recent generation of iPad and the iPad mini to your DISTO E7500i? This allows you to beam the laser's measurements to the sketch on your iPad automatically. All you have to do is swipe to give the line a direction and the iPad anchors it according to the measurement from your DISTO. This helps complete your sketches faster and makes them more accurate by reducing the amount of data you're actually typing on the screen. The video above shows you what the process looks like, as well as a clever, low-tech way to avoid juggling devices.
