Hi Folks,

I am looking for a way to track the end point for a 3D robot. I
thought of a camera and frame grabber but it sounded really 
expensive because I had to use two cameras. I looked at 
ultrasonic sensors but I am not sure if they will work..

If anybody has any suggestion, either post them or e-mail
me directly .. I am doing Ph.D in flexible robot control
and I am using accelerometers to measure the end-point
vibration. Thanks in advance
Ahmed Zaki
