The ultrasonic sensor is the most replied sensor in mobile robot to get environmental information and avoid obstacles. In fact, this type of sensors offers satisfactory results with affordable cost. However, one sensor is insufficient for a better perception of the environment. In this paper we opt for the conception of an ultrasonic sensor network to extract as much information as possible for measuring the distance between the robot and the obstacle. The algorithm for distance calculation is based on the measurement of the time of flight for the ultrasonic wave. The experimental results show a good performance of the conceived system for the distinction between different shapes of obstacles.
