I am involved in a project at school making an underwater vehicle. We would like to add Sonar or Infrared to the robot so that it can be controlled autonomously. Our current attempts to reverse engineer the sonar from fish finders has been unsuccessful. Ultimately we would like to be able to detect objects and tell how far they are away from the robot. Does anybody have any tips? schematics? information? that would help. I'm not even sure if IR would work underwater. Thanks for your help.
