# Surveying Tool Tablets EyesMap is a 3D Design Tablet That Combines Several Surveying Tools By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2014-12-03 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3d-design-tablet References: [techcrunch](http://techcrunch.com/2014/06/23/eyesmap/) & [chicagotribune](http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-big-data-chicago-20140621,0,2219153,full.story) EyesMap is a 3D design tablet from Spanish startup E-Capture R&D that's equipped with [3D sensing tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shining-3d) to make the jobs of civil engineers, architects and [surveyors easier](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/civ-robotics). The EyesMap tablet has two rear 13MP cameras, a depth sensor and a GPS to measure coordinates, volumes and surfaces in real-time. What makes the tablet so impressive is that it's able to scan a photogrammetric picture with millions of dots in about two minutes. In terms of the kind of power that backs this tablet, it runs on Windows and makes use of [Intel's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handheld-algiz-10xr) 4th generation i7 processor, with 16 GB of RAM. The device is like a hybrid of many standalone instruments used for surveying, but it condenses these tools into one neat and easy-to-carry tablet. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.7/10 - Popularity: 39% | Activity: 65% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **3D Sensing Tools:** A trend in the construction industry where tablets equipped with 3D sensing tools are being used to simplify the work of civil engineers, architects, and surveyors. - **Real-time Measurement:** A trend in surveying and design where tablets with GPS capabilities can measure coordinates, volumes, and surfaces in real-time, providing instant data for analysis. - **Hybrid Surveying Devices:** A trend in the field of surveying where tablets combine multiple standalone instruments into one compact and portable device, offering convenience and efficiency. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Construction:** The construction industry can benefit from the disruptive innovation opportunity of using tablets with 3D sensing tools for precise measurements and design planning. - **Surveying:** The surveying industry can explore the disruptive innovation opportunity of utilizing tablets with real-time measurement capabilities to streamline data collection and analysis processes. - **Technology:** The technology industry has the disruptive innovation opportunity to develop and improve hybrid surveying devices that integrate multiple tools into a single tablet, offering a seamless user experience. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Portable Urban Mapping Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/threedimensional-spatial-data.md) - [Content-Creation Touchscreen Tablets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/touchscreen-tablet.md) - [Digital Measuring Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lidar.md) - [Six-in-One Laser Measure Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/laser-measure.md) - [Immersive 3D Imagery Tablets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lume-pad-2.md) - [AR Display Measuring Instruments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ar-measuring-instrument.md) - [LIDAR Mapping Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rock-robotic.md) - [Advanced Spatial 3D Scanners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spatial-3d-scanners.md) - [AR Measurement Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/measure-tools.md)
