Test Data
The test data on the following pages is based on the PING))) sensor, tested in the Parallax lab, while
connected to a BASIC Stamp microcontroller module. The test surface was a linoleum floor, so the
sensor was elevated to minimize floor reflections in the data. All tests were conducted at room
temperature, indoors, in a protected environment. The target was always centered at the same elevation
as the PING))) sensor.
