Desktop Engineering about the Evolution of Mobile CAD
“The most promising use of mobile apps at the present appears to be for work crews in remote locations. (…) ‘To measure buildings, we need to be extremely mobile — enough to be able to climb ladders, jump and down, and keep both hands free’, Graebert’s Prinzen points out. ‘You can’t do that with a laptop.’ (…) In environments where a laptop is a burden and a desktop is nearly impossible to operate — such as on construction projects, survey sites or plant floors — mobile apps and mobile devices are breaking new ground“, says Kenneth Wong for Desktop Engineering.
