You should not use three laser, but only one and three detectors.nips said:Thanks ME for your invaluable help.
I don't want to use laser detectors as targets, that'd mean connecting all 3 of them to the main controller board.Maybe using lasers with retro-mirrors will help.
Anybody has experience with retro-reflectors, their accuracy to reflect the ray directly back to the source ?Another idea is using reflective tapes which reflects similar to retro-reflectors..but they are for short range as i read.Any idea about the range in which reflective tapes can be used using laser?
I'm trying with IR right now ..maybe reducing the sensitivity of receiver may cause the sensor to pick up IR from the transmitters(i.e. only when aligned along it) and not from the nearby reflecting surfaces.
thanks again for all your help

sounds interesting..never occured to me.why not try a sonar?
You can't use three transmitters, because they have to point directly at your robot, so when the robot moves, the the light beam would not hit the robot anymore.nips said:You should not use three laser, but only one and three detectors.
That'd mean connecting all 3 detectors to the main controller which would be bit cumbersome to handle..unless i use wireless communication.
Using tranmitters as targets will be easy as they would be independent units- easy to move around but not fruitful in case of laser.
