[DPRG] Placement and interpretation of ultrasonic

Guys:

I have two MaxBotics ultrasonic sensors, that I want to use to give the 
Hexbot some "eyesight".  I need a good way to place these two sensors, 
and some information on how to crunch the incoming numbers, to give the 
processor a good picture of surrounding obstacles.

I don't know if I should place both facing directly forward, at slight 
angles, one forward and another at an angle, or something else.

Does anyone have some general advice on this topic?

Brian
