Studies regarding detection of obstacles with different geometric shape using Parallax Ping sensor

The idea of using mobile robots to different applications is very common today. For choosing the best hardware and software configuration for the mobile robot it is necessary in order to make a documented analysis of the environment in which the mobile robot will be evolved. The conditions regarding the working environment is mainly determined by obstacles. The purpose of the project it is to establish some differences in the detection of obstacles for various geometric shapes using Parallax Ping ultrasonic sensor.
