(...) My suggestion: Touch: Have the track elevated, and free to move up and down (1 'hinged' joint). Then have your touch sensor below the track.

No significant difference. The Dacta sensors (light and rotation) originally had longer, thinner wires and a blue connector on the end (instead of the black connector). In all other aspects they were identical. I wouldn't be surprised if at some (...) (25 years ago, 29-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)
