My original assumption is that the robot is essentially the Bule box in the corner (where the range finder is) and that it is pointed at the wall. I am guessing this is wrong, I think there may be a better way to solve this problem based on how you use your sensors but I need to know more about what I am looking at.
I was thinking about it in school today, yea, my diagram need more info. My goal in teh short term is to be able to render a 3d image on screen with the info I get from the sensor. It sounds complicated but not really. I can get the x, y and z coordinates of the point just using trig.
