Hey guys I was wondering if any of you know anything about this sensor?"Sharp GP2D120 IR Sensor"? Does this sensor also help avoid other robots on field or not? Because we need a sensor that would avoid hitting other robots on playing field? Thanks Shah |

Shah, The GP2D120 or other reflective distance sensors is good in that application. It looks at where the reflection appears on a linear sensor in the receiving end to determine the distance. Be sure to buy the right sensor for the distance range you need to measure. Also, some will read a long distance when something is very close so be sure to check the response curves in the docs and place the sensor so nothing can appear in that indeterminate range. -Derek -----Original Message----- From: shafeez22 [mailto:] Sent: Monday, January 17, 2005 8:54 PM To: Subject: [BasicX] Sharp GP2D120 IR Sensor Hey guys I was wondering if any of you know anything about this sensor?"Sharp GP2D120 IR Sensor"?
