Re: Ultrasonic Sensor Question (FRC+VEX parts)
The Parallax ping sensor is very easy to use on an Arduino but not so much on a RoboRIO. So if you have them lying around try not to use them for FRC. They're a pain. The kind we use whenever we use an ultrasonic sensor is 5 pins. It's either an SRF04 or 05. They're easy to use and program on an FRC robot. here's a link https://www.robot-electronics.co.uk/htm/srf05tech.htm

Don't ever give up on your robot, especially this early in the season. That robot is what you make of it. If you give it your all, something good is bound to come your way. - Amanda Morrison [more]
