Its always easy to see the project and see who to do it better when  
you have the benefit of the man's existing work ... I could sure use  
one of them with the 1-5.5 meter sensor for backing up to my pickup to  
the woodshed with the back piled 4-5 feet high with wood!!!!!

I am going to try to duplicate that with an ATmeag168 under  
Arduino ... shouldn't be too hard ...
