Rotate LX1 smoothly when changing direction.
Rotation allows LX1 to understand the angle between wall planes. Smooth, controlled movement helps maintain clean and consistent room geometry.
Turn your whole body naturally — avoid twisting only your wrist
Keep LX1 upright and close to your centreline
Moderate tilt is acceptable when needed for stable movement or tighter spaces
Avoid swinging the device outward or holding it sideways
Finish the rotation aligned cleanly with the next wall
Your movement should feel like a natural turn while walking, not a pivot of the wrist.
Keep LX1 Upright
LX1 is designed to work best when held upright during measurement.
Slight natural tilt is acceptable where needed, but excessive tilt or sideways movement should be avoided.
For best results:
Upright = best practice
Moderate tilt = acceptable
Excessive tilt or sideways movement = avoid
Keeping LX1 upright and controlled helps maintain reliable motion tracking and cleaner geometry.
When transitioning from one wall to the next:
Keep LX1 steady
Avoid sudden swings
Avoid abrupt direction changes
Maintain the same steady pace
Controlled rotation helps LX1 interpret changes in wall direction accurately.
Abrupt or exaggerated movement during a turn can introduce unnecessary motion into the measurement.
Especially in tight or cluttered spaces, take a slightly wider and smoother turn rather than twisting sharply.
Consistent rotation helps ensure:
Accurate wall angles
Clean corner transitions
Reliable shape closure
Stable room geometry
With smooth, natural turning, LX1 can accurately capture wall angles, even in irregular or non-rectangular rooms.
