Abstract
Ultrasonic enables a mobile autonomous system to obtain information about obstacles in
large environments. In the presented work, taking the limited energy resources of a mobile robot into
account, only one transmitter is used. The employment of two receivers permits the calculation of
the distance to and the orientation of a wall, using only time-of-flight measurements. The evaluation
procedure consists of basic geometrical calculations, which do not strain the system's calculating
power too excessively. The results show that it is possible to place the transmitter and the receivers
close together without losing much of the performance. Hence the introduced arrangement of
ultrasonic sensors can be used for small systems, e.g. the mini-robot Khepera.
