Hi all, You will here: http://www.philohome.com/sensors/gp2d12.htm a new interface between Sharp GP2D12 distance sensor and RCX. Simple and inexpensive circuitry, compact design, only one input port used, no external supply needed! As an application example, there is a wall-follower RoverBot with videos at http://www.philohome.com/wallfollower/wallfollower.htm Enjoy ! Philo http://www.philohome.com
