* @brief C++ API for the LV-MaxSonar-EZ family of ultrasonic rangers
*
* This sensor family returns an analog voltage corresponding to the
* distance of an object from the sensor in inches. It has a
* resolution of about 9.7 millivolts per inch with a 5.0 AREF. The
* differences between the various versions (EZ1, EZ2, etc) are
* related to the narrowness of the beam angle.
*
* This class supports these sensors with an analog input only.
*
* This driver was developed using an LV-MaxSonar-EZ3.
