Nwmo | I'm pretty much in the same boat, if I spend enough hours looking through arduino forums and electrical engineering forums I might know enough to ask the right questions and at least have a conversation with some one that does know whats going on.
I would start with a maxbotix sensor and go from there, I simulated an analog range sensor using a 10k potentiometer and it worked but I was using analog output not pwm or serial, so I could build my program around the 10k pot.
The maxbotix people were very helpful and even offered to send me arduino program examples to use each output type of a sensor. As I recall they were pushing an i2c interface. I didnt look at the original sensor linked above but if it's the standard "ping" sensor, the code to operate that sensor is very different from the maxbotix sensors. | |
