Measure With Moasure LX1

This section explains how to capture a complete floor plan using Moasure LX1.

Moasure LX1 measures continuously while in motion. Each time you place the device flat and fully still against a wall, LX1 captures a measurement point.

Your floor plan builds in real time as you move around the room.

By following the workflow in this section, you can capture:

  • Wall geometry

  • Door positions

  • Window positions

  • Stair locations

  • Wardrobe / Closet positions

  • Ceiling heights

  • Multi-room layouts

  • Overall floor plan measurements


How Moasure LX1 Measures

Unlike traditional laser distance meters, LX1 does not require you to measure the length of each wall individually.

Instead:

  • Move steadily between walls

  • Place LX1 flat against each wall

  • Hold the device fully still while the measurement point is captured

  • The app uses the captured wall planes to calculate the room geometry and corners automatically

You do not need to place LX1 directly into each corner. Corners are calculated from the adjoining wall planes.

This means you can place LX1 anywhere along an accessible section of wall, helping you work around furniture, radiators and other obstacles.


Before You Begin

Before starting your first room:

  • Choose a clear wall as your starting wall

  • Start on a plain section of wall, not a doorway or other feature

  • Check which Reference Point is active

  • Make sure you have enough space to move safely around the room

For best results:

  • Start and finish on the same wall plane

  • Move at a steady, controlled pace

  • Place LX1 smoothly and flat against each wall

  • Hold the device fully still until the point is captured

  • Turn your body smoothly as you change direction

Good Pace, Placement and Rotation will help you achieve the best results with LX1.


Measurement Workflow

Each step is explained in detail on the following pages.

To complete a full project, follow these steps in order:

  1. Add Room Features While Measuring (Doors, Windows, Stairs, Wardrobes / Closets)

  2. Add Additional Rooms (Connecting Through a Door)

  3. Review, Edit & Export Your Floor Plan in Your Moasure App
