OFFICIAL QUESTION:

Forensic Science Geek of the Week Challenge
Forensic Science Geek of the Week Challenge

1. What is pictured in front of the casr?

2. What is it used for?

3. How does it work?

4. Are there any known issues with respect to its forensic suitability? If so, what?

Our Geek of the Week answered:

The photo is an enradd device. It is a speed timing device used in Pennsylvania speed traps. The two pieces are set up on opposite sides of the road and a car passes through two laser beams. It is supposed to tell the police how fast the car is going.

The main issue is that if the one beam hits your car on one place (like the tire) and the second is a little higher up and it hits the bumper then whole calculation of speed will be off. The distance is so close that a small difference will give a wrong speed. The police test it with a police car, but then it it used on SUV and small cars. It also has to be on very level ground, but th side of the road is not level.

I also understand they are expensive.
