RECORDED RESULTS, REAL COMPARISONS

Measured on a scan. Checked with a tape.

These individual checks compare selected scan measurements with measurements taken using a tape measure.

  • Door, cabinet and bookshelf captures, recorded on an iPhone and an Android phone.
  • Measurement points selected by hand on the scan.
  • Tape values used only for validation, never as measurement inputs.
