Go to Post Build season is the best time of the year. Better than Christmas because the presents are cooler, and better than new years cause you get to stay up later. - burkey_turkey [more]

Re: Bad readings from the maxbotics sonar

We had the same problem and found there were some errors, but we took some data to find a number ours 1.242 I think, which would lead the number read to be closer to the actual distance. Some of the problems with the sensor may be that it is being affected by temperature which changes the speed of sound or then "beam" may be picking up other things in the same area.
