Not to do a blatant commercial plug here, but I thought this would be
of interest to the readers of this group...

We are offering a new laser navigation sensor that can be added on to any
robot with a spare rs232 port.

To quote from the specs,

  LaserNav 2 works by scanning at  10 RPS a class  1  eye safe laser beam 
  in  a  360  degree sweep so  as  to  illuminate retroreflective targets
  mounted on walls.  The reflected light from the targets is detected and
  the angle  to  the  target is measured.
  ... 

  The LaserNav sensor is mounted in an enclosure about 15 x 15 x 5 inches
  tall with a  12  inch diameter dome for  the optics  (maximum height is 
  about 11 inches).

I have put the full specs and pricing info on ftp.msel.unh.edu:/pub/denning.
Please feel free to email me or call Denning directly for more info..
