(...) You're correct, I was streaming it from Google which was probably the issue. (...) It doesn't matter how much quicker than the standard a single module is - if it only gets 1 bps, then it can only pass them to the downstream module at 1 bps... (...)

(...) I downloaded it completely and don't see any jerkiness, maybe that was due to streaming it as the bandwidth from Google was a bit low (< 100kB/s). (...) But then it may need to accept a lot of balls, if the other modules are quicker. I know (...) (19 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 (19 years ago, 6-Sep-06, to lugnet.robotics)
