Distance Measuring Sensor DMS-80

This sensor is very accurate and fairly easy to work with if you have some programming experience already. I used this to set up a walk routine with the Robotis Mini in which he walks around until this sensor detects something close in front of him (10cm), then he turns a few degrees and "looks" to see if he is still facing something close (like if he is in a corner) and keeps turning until there is nothing in front of him within a longer distance (80cm) from the sensor. I mounted it by cutting a little rectangle hole in the chest plate of the Robotis Mini and then glued this sensor in the hole.
