    Safety harnesses have restraints that prevent the wearer from falling from a height. By wearing the belt or harness the risk of injury from a fall is greatly reduced. The harness allows the user to attach themselves to an object that is stationary, ensuring they will not hit the ground in the event of a possible fall.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Height_gauge

    A height gauge is a measuring device used for determining the height of objects, and for marking of items to be worked on. [ 1 ] These measuring tools are used in metalworking or metrology to either set or measure vertical distances; [ citation needed ] the pointer is sharpened to allow it to act as a scriber and assist in marking out work pieces.

    Ideal test indicator pushed. Prior to modern geared dial mechanisms, test indicators using a single lever or systems of levers were common. The range and precision of these devices were generally inferior to modern dial type units, with a range of 10/1000 inch to 30/1000 inch, and precision of 1/1000 inch being typical.

  9. Height finder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Height_finder

    A height finder radar is a type of 2-dimensional radar that measures altitude of a target. The operator slews the antenna toward a desired bearing , identifies a target echo at a desired range on the range height indicator display, then bisects the target with a cursor that is scaled to indicate the approximate altitude of the target.
