If you are thinking of using an FRC bot for the base of your triangle, and you are trying get the distances to objects that are scattered around an FRC field, You might be disappointed by the probable size of the distance errors
Or you might be perfectly happy. Just don't overlook the extreme precision required for accurate distance measurements across a reasonably wide field of view.

I am perfectly fine with "that object is close" "that object is farther" type of thing, I am not making the next mars rover or anything  I don't need to be that exact, may be off by a foot or 2 is fine

Whether or not you use wheel weights, if you're running a wheel at several thousand RPM, you'd better have an effective containment system to protect the outside world in case something spontaneously disassembles itself. - Alan Anderson [more]
