If I was going to do ultrasonic, I'd use the Polaroid module. It's set up to range from something like 9 inches to 32 feet (working from memory, here :) ). They aren't real cheap, but you might be able to put one on a rotating platform to get the multi-directional capability. ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Does Anybody know about good DISTANCE SENSORS for use with a pic 16c74, I thought i'd use ultrasonic but the i'd need a transmitter and a reciever for every direction (4 directions to measure), the Xmitters need a 40kHz signal to operate...
