Robot netters,

I am looking for a range finding sensor - commercially available -
that can measure range profiles at a standoff distance of up to 
2 meters.  Accuracy required is about 1 cm at 2m. 

Any pointers to such a sensor are valued.  If there is sufficient
interest directed to me on this topic I will post a summary of what 
is found to be available.

Thanks....Colin Archibald
