[chbot] UNI-T UT390B Laser Range Finder Distance Meter

[Robin Gilks]

Greetings all

I've started to collect sensors of one sort or another for my robotic
walnut picker-upper.

So far I've received the above hand held Laser range finder that operates
over a range of 50mm to 40m (+/- 2mm allegedly) (tested from 50mm to 35m
so far!!) which has a serial interface to allow hacking into it as
detailed here :)

I'll bring it to the next meeting as its a nice bit of kit (even if it did
come from China and is probably really really dangerous).

Cheers
