Go to Post Ultrasonic sensors will allow you to do fundamentally the same thing that the bump sensors do...so you can slow down and smoothly stop your robot just before it reaches the end wall, instead of running into it at full speed and then figuring out "ohh! there is a wall there!" - dlavery [more]

Found that also, just posted the other link because that is where our team ordered from. We ordered the new compressor because of its increased air movement, but mostly because the 2 pound less it is is 2 pounds of lead we can put where ever we want to help balance the robot if necessary (or just save 2 pounds). And the only reason I mentioned it was because that setup looks like it will use a huge amount of air. Just counted and there's 9 pistons on that chassis, I am glad our bot only uses 3 (1 for manipulation, 2 for minibot deployment).
