An electronic transducer is associated with the carriage and is arranged to produce an electric signal indicative of the distance between the carriage and the surface and it is associated with electronic circuitry arranged to process the signal and to provide a visible indication of the distance and thus of the height of the person on the surface. A side table may be provided for attachment to the surface so that a person may lie on the surface and the side table with arms outstretched on the table so that an arm span mesurement can be made.
