Re: Ultrasonic Help

What's wrong with using an encoder? We use it to run our positioning and it works very predictably every time.

I really don't have any advice on the ultrasonic issue. Theoretically it should work, but I could also see a lot going wrong as well. To be perfectly honest, that seems like an extremely dicey way to measure height.
