Mar 20, 2003 Thread starter #3 HDS Mechanical Jul 25, 2002 661 thanks Greg I was thinking that ultrasonic would work but I couldn't find a scanner vendor. Do you know of one? Henry Sommer Upvote 0 Downvote

It would bounce off at an equal angle, and a set of receptors could tell you whether it was high or low compared with the ideal position? Cheers Greg Locock Upvote 0 Downvote
