For now, works perfectly on the MXP, thanks again!

Poking around the linux side with i2ctools there are definitive read/write errors showing up for the onboard port, so I'll be sure to let them know.

Anyone tried this out on diamond plate? I bet more than my team has felt a twinge of failure with ultrasonics when moving from the lab to the field.

Anything solid and IR opaque should have good data from this sensor. The diamond plate will definitely give good distance readings, but totes and lexan still need to be tested.
