That link you show... the same one you sent before... doesn't really show any specific parts.

Though I'm a Mechanical Engineer, and not familiar with particular sensors, I know sonar and IR rangefinders are available from a variety of sources.

Perhaps... some of the more experienced "SparkE's" from this website will be better able to help you out.

In the future, if you are going to ask a question on this website, make sure you provide enough information so someone can actually answer it.

Thanks,
John

Check Acroname for a large set of sensors that are similar/identical to the ones descibed on the CMU site.
