(* Hey Gladys, hand me the blow torch.. *)

(* FLAME ON! *)

  Just kidding, but I am disappointed at this group. I
posted a very simple question a week or so ago, and didn't
get a SINGLE response to the question. What is it, you
don't like me? :)

  I want to ask once more time.

  I am starting a project that will require locating some
object (transmitter, reflector, or something) in three-space
by way of infrared beams or the like. I know the math (i.e. the
intersection of three spheres) but I need to know more about
the specific components of the objects or detectors.

  I went to my school's Engineering Library and looked around.
The books I found, though, were past me.

  If someone could mail me personal knowledge, or the names of
simple books (ones that a sophomore in Mathematics/Comp Sci field
could use), about this subject, I would deeply appreciate it.
