About Laser Distance Meter
Laser distance meters are highly efficient, faster, and an accurate mode of distance measurement when compared to measuring tape. The laser distance meters were first introduced in Paris in 1993 by Leica Geosystems, the company which was later acquired by Hexagon in 2005. The first laser distance meter was heavy, weighing around 1 kg, with a tiny display. The laser distance meters were initially used by end-users that had measurement applications in inaccessible areas and hazardous or dangerous locations. Over the 25 years, the laser distance meters have become smaller, lightweight handheld devices, with better accuracy, longer lasting batteries, better displays that show multiple measurements, and a certified rugged outer shell.
Technavio’s analysts forecast the global laser distance meter market to grow at a CAGR of 1.59% during the period 2017-2021.
