[Robostang 548]

My team used the sharp sensor this year on our bot. It worked great for what we needed it to do. We mounted it on the front of our bot and for autonomous mode we just pointed the robot in the direction we wanted it to go and went forward at half speed until the ir picked somthing up (usualy a wall or the rack). I know it worked everytime because I could see that while the robot would hit a wall it would stop moving the drive motors. Next year we plan on using the sharp IR's again only for longer range detection.
