Hi,
Just a quick question...What would be most effective ?
An array of sensors (IR or sonar), or a single sensor on a continuously
rotating base (assume 1 rotation every 2 secs...) ?
Could someone here explain me the main functional differences of the 2
approaches, please?
Also, since I'm at it...
Recently I've seen a graph containing a typical beam pattern for the polaroid
6500 sonar (ftp://wirz.com/Polaroid_Sonar/6500.PDF)... Is the vertical shape
of the beam patterns the same as the horizontal shape?
Thank in advance,
Andre.
