mrjagdad is an unknown quantity at this point
Which Ultrasonic Sensors for positioning

Something we want to try out.
We want to make sure we use the proper sensors

The idea is to have a sensor on either side of the robot the width
of a crate. The robot can move back and forth, left and right.
The idea is:
1) Move the robot within a few inches of the crate.
2) The operator clicks a button the the robot moves to
the left or right to center it on the crate.
3) The sensors will mark when both are not directly in front of the crate,
i.e. they are in either side of the crate.

We need a sensor with a thin beam.
I have looked at the two Andy Mark has available MB1200 and MB1013

Does anyone have experience with either, or a better one.
Again the beam needs to be thin to mark when the sensor is no
longer in front of the crate.

Thanks to all.
