Distribution: I need information about ranging devices suitable for robotics, that is, devices that allow a robot to measure the distance between itself and other objects. I have been using Polaroid's ultrasonic sensor, which has worked well but has not been totally satisfactory for a number of reasons. (Amazing the things that Polaroid develops. :-)) I am particularly interested in information about optical devices (which typically use infrared). Please mail your replies, and if there is sufficient interest I'll post a summary. Thanks, all you wonderful people.... -- -m------- Carl S.
