Gemba Walks are often done in a layered manner. At the lowest layer, the Department Manager does a daily walk, and an hourly associate presents the data. At these daily walks, it is common for the local maintenance mechanics, engineers, and QC technicians to participate.
LIDAR is similar to the radar commonly used to track everything from airplanes in flight to thunderstorms. But instead of bouncing radio waves off its target, LIDAR uses short pulses of laser light. Some of that light reflects off of tiny particles in the atmosphere and back to a telescope aligned with the laser.
The Queensland Police Service use LIDAR devices for speed detection on a regular âanywhere, anytimeâ basis. The devices are usually hand held and are commonly referred to as âspeed gunsâ, but they can also be mounted on tripods as well.
