On page 71 of the November 1990 issue of NASA Tech Briefs, there is an
ad for Polaroid's Ultrasonic Ranging System.  They offer the Designer's
Kit for $165.  The address given in the ad is:

Polaroid Corporation
Ultrasonic Components Group
119 Windsor Street
Cambridge, MA 02139

The ad says that if you have questions you should call Polaroid's
Applications Engineers at (617) 577-4681.  You should really get a copy
of the ad.  They mention three different types of ultrasonic transducers
that you might be interested in.
