The measurement result of the moved distance for a free mass m during the time {tau} between two position measurements cannot be predicted with uncertainty smaller than {radical}(({h_bar}/2{pi}){tau}/m). This is formulated as a standard quantum limit and it has been proven to always hold for the following position measurement: a probe is set in a prescribed position before the measurement. Just after the interaction of the mass with the probe, the probe position is measured, and using this value, the measurement results of the premeasurement and postmeasurement positions are estimated.
