Hay im new in working with this type of sensor.. Is there a good tutorial that will show me how to make something happedn like lets say run another command to search with the servo to turn it left and right...
If you where able to under stand that...
Simple explanation
When i get lets say 4 in's to a wall, It will Goto another script to move a servo left 90 degrees and right 90 degrees
Sorry for bad English!

If you are already able to get readings from the sensor then the rest is just programming. Something like this would be easy.
while(1) {
if(sensor_reading > 4inches) {
go_forward();
} else {
servo_routine();
}
}
There are other ways of doing it... Maybe you could set an interrupt on the event of a comparator toggle (if the sensor can give an analogue voltage output). Or you could have a timer interrupting the code for a regular check of the sensor readings. These methods would allow your robot to do other things at the same time (with ease).
