Floorplan-Drawing Apps

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The RoomScan Mobile App Generates Floor Plans in No Time at All

— March 23, 2014 — Art & Design
RoomScan is an app that easily draws floor plans by itself, so you never have to bust out the measuring tape and get down on your knees. All you have to do is touch each wall with your phone, and the app goes about gathering the dimensions and putting together an approximate floor plan that takes into account the length and heights of walls and floor area.

Measurements are estimated to the nearest 10 cm (or half a foot if you decide to choose feet as the measuring index). Measurements can be made in metric, feet & inches and even obscure East Asian measuring units.

Roomscan can easily draw floor plans of rooms of different shapes including L-shaped and more complex rooms, as well as regular square-shaped and rectangular rooms.


Trend Themes
1. Automated Floorplan Drawing - The trend of using apps like RoomScan to automatically generate floor plans is disrupting the traditional process of manually measuring and drawing floorplans, saving time and effort for professionals in architecture and real estate.
2. Mobile Measurement Technology - The trend of utilizing mobile devices to accurately measure and gather data for floor plans is revolutionizing the field of interior design and home renovation, making it more accessible and efficient.
3. Cross-unit Measurement Compatibility - The trend of allowing floorplan apps like RoomScan to easily switch between different measurement units is providing convenience and flexibility for professionals working in international markets, particularly in the real estate and construction industries.
Industry Implications
1. Architecture - The architecture industry can leverage automated floorplan drawing technologies to streamline their design process, improve accuracy, and enhance client presentations.
2. Real Estate - Real estate professionals can benefit from the time-saving features of floorplan apps like RoomScan, allowing them to quickly generate accurate floor plans for property listings and home staging.
3. Interior Design - The interior design industry can tap into the mobile measurement technology trend to simplify their space planning and furniture arrangement process, providing clients with more accurate visual representations of their designs.
