If you have a rotation sensor you could have it count the distance for you.
I'll be receiving a speedcomputer (5206) shortly and hope to find out if
I can use it as a rotation sensor.
I've also read (but not yet succesfully tried) that the fiber optics
element (part #6637) can be used a a rotation sensor.

I have created a robot on differential drive which is connected with a
bumper mechanism using the touch sensor. I want to create a program
that measures distances between walls of the room.
I know the robot can travel 1m distance in 2secs. But now what I want
to do is, when the bumper is pressed(robot hits the wall) the robot
should stop moving forward and display the distance travelled on the
LCD. I've tried using System.currentTimeMillis(), but since leJOS
doesnt support "long" datatypes, Im unable to use it and find the time
for which it travelled before hitting the wall. I cant find anything
useful in the TimingNavigator class that can give me distance
travelled by robot.
Please provide some solution on how can this be done. Please reply
quickly as this is an urgent requirement.
