LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 19, 2006--Tapping into the United States' $250 billion home remodeling market, DigiContractor, Inc., today announced the release of iPhotoMEASURE(TM), the industry's first Photo Measuring Tool. The patent-pending computer-based software allows users to obtain measurements of any item in digital photographs. Any digital camera becomes a precise measuring device without any alterations to the camera. The consumer can simply point, shoot, download, and open the photo with iPhotoMEASURE. iPhotoMEASURE is easy to use. The user takes a picture of the area, room or object to be measured for remodeling, redecorating, or interior design purposes. The user then proceeds to transfer the digital photo to their computer and opens it with iPhotoMEASURE's user-friendly software. With a simple click of the mouse, any distance within the picture can be measured to within 99.5% accuracy. "The gas money spent driving to and from estimates, as well as the time spent manually measuring a potential customer's job, is eliminated with iPhotoMEASURE," said Paul Minor, DigiContractor Founder, President and General Contractor. With over 2.5 million Contracting Businesses operating in the U.S. bidding on an estimated 15 million remodeling jobs per year, iPhotoMEASURE streamlines a previously time-consuming, costly estimating process. The software is also great for Homeowners, as now they don't have to hassle with coordinating appointments with Contractors. Users can also go shopping at Retailers with all measurements in hand to aide their decisions.
