[Noisebridge-discuss] Cheap distance sensor

[Jonathan Foote]

I've had my eye on this for a while:

Looks hackable as output is LED bargraph. Also, you can't in general
use multiple ultrasonic distance sensors without some kind of
synchronization (because they hear each other's pings as echos); with
this unit looks like the sync has already been taken care of.
