Re: Sensor to detect boulder in robot?
You have multiple options. Depending on specific configuration, you have:
1) IR Sharp Distance Sensor (provided analog voltage whose inverse correlates with distance.
2) IR Proximity Switch (Goes true when object detected within X inches)
3) Break beam sensor (see garage door sensors)
Be warned with the IR Prox Switch, some do not pick up specific colors/materials reliably. We had one last year that could not reliably detect Gray Totes. If it is truly inside your robot, a break beam would be the most reliable.
