High-Tech Tape Measures

The Bagel Smart Tape Measure is Made for Calculating Precise Measurements

— July 8, 2016 — Tech
Bagel Labs is revolutionizing the way consumers take measurements with the new Bagel Smart Tape Measure. While many popular tools have received a high-tech upgrade, the tape measure is one device that has remained relatively unchanged over the years. Now the tape measure is being brought into the 21st century in order to meet the needs of today's tech-savvy handyman.

The Bagel Smart Tape Measure is a handheld device equipped with a digital display and three different measuring modes. To use the tool, users simply pull out a retractable string and the device will instantly calculate the exact length. To measure hard-to-reach areas such as walls or ceilings, the device will use ultrasonic sensors to track distance. The device will then send these measurements directly to the user's smartphone for easy access and organization. The accompanying app can even create virtual blueprints from the measurements to help users better visualize their project.
