<html><body><div style="color:#000; background-color:#fff; font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;font-size:10pt">Hi Julian,<br><br>As for the URF, I can't give you any infos but I've been using Maxbotix's indoor sensors a few times.<br><br>One
thing you really want to take into acount is the fact that sensors
interract with each others, you therefore need to chain them properly.<br>You might want to take a look at power filters too.<br>Maxbotix's tutorial page has been quite useful to me so far.<br><br>As to get the infos to pd, I've been using these sensors with a raspberry pi. <br>My option has been to collect the data from the RPi's GPIO using python and then send them to pd using OSC. <br>I'm starting to write small tutorials explaining what I've been through, if you use the RPi too I'd be happy to point them to you.<br><div><br><span></span></div><div>Have fun,<br>Alex <br><br></div><br> <div><div style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"> <div style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div dir="ltr"> <font face="Arial" size="2"> <hr size="1"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">De :</span></b> Julian Brooks <jbeezez@gmail.com><br> <b><span style="font-weight:
