1. A device for measuring a metric of a measurement area of interest on a subject comprising:
- an arm;
a rest attached to or formed on the arm;
a base attached to ot formed on the arm; and
a displacement sensor attached to the arm;
wherein the arm, rest, and displacemnt sensor can be adjusted to optimize the spatial relationship between the displacement sensor and the measurement area of interest on the subject.

Abstract
A method of measuring a metric of a measurement area of interest on a subject comprises contacting a part of the subject on a rest of a measurement apparatus that comprises an arm, a base attached to or formed on the arm, and a displacement sensor attached to the arm; adjusting the measurement apparatus to optimize the spatial relationship between the displacement sensor and the measurement area of interest on the subject; and measuring the metric.
