Ill let you search for a sensor you like yourself.
But i can give you a starting point on how to utilize a sensor.
-Supply a voltage to the sensor (5volts or 3.3 volts most of the time).
-Read the voltage from the sensor using an input in the digital sidecar
-Use a calibration factor (should be in the manual for the sensor) to convert the voltage to distance
The programming is simple, but different for every language. I'm sure a small search would yield a tutorial for programming sensors in your language of choice.
Good luck!
