Modern Robotics Modern Robotics Ultrasonic and Optical Range Sensor (1-255cm)

The Modern Robotics Ultrasonic and Optical Range Sensor (1-255cm) combines ultrasonic and optical measuring elements to obtain a reading between 1cm and 255cm. The ultrasonic sensor accurately measures the distance to a target up to 255cm away, but it losses accuracy if the object is closer than 5cm. This is where the optical sensor comes into play as it can measure from 1cm out to about 7cm.
