First, what the US sensor returns is the range of the nearest sound-reflecting surface: but it's not a pencil thin laser beam of sound, so the same object might be detected at slightly different angles, making the object apeear (...)

So I think I can get away with it not being super-accurate or resolute. I'm really looking (...) (18 years ago, 6-Sep-06, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | Hi, (...) since sound travels at about 333 m/s (depending on temperature and pressure), a meter takes 3 milliseconds. At the maximum range of 2.5 meters, times two that would be 15 milliseconds per reading. Cheers Jürgen (18 years ago, 6-Sep-06, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | (...) Unfortunately, you cannot operate a ultrasound sensor at this rate. I think it is much slower than this. Before you start a new "ping" you have to ensure that all the echoes from distant devices on first ping have been received before starting (...) (18 years ago, 6-Sep-06, to lugnet.robotics)
