Educational Benefits & Features
Feature: Integrated Pythagorean calculation mode.
Benefit: Allows students to perform indirect measurements of heights and lengths in inaccessible areas, solving the problem of physical obstruction during surveying or trigonometry field exercises.
Feature: High-speed optoelectronic sensor.
Benefit: Delivers near-instantaneous measurement results, facilitating high student throughput and allowing more data points to be collected during limited laboratory or field periods.
Feature: Multi-line backlit Liquid Crystal Display.
Benefit: Displays consecutive measurements and derived calculations (like area or volume) simultaneously, reducing transcription errors and helping students visualize the relationship between linear and cubic units.
Feature: Selectable measurement reference points.
Benefit: Enables students to account for the physical dimensions of the instrument during measurement, teaching the concept of zero-point calibration and systematic error reduction.
Feature: Continuous measurement (Tracking) mode.
Benefit: Provides real-time distance updates as the student moves, ideal for demonstrating velocity concepts or finding the exact perpendicular distance to a surface in physics experiments.
