Wow! Ben's article and slides shows Ralph Johnson's suggestion several steps closer to real life and on computer vision for robots.
I'm still thinking a laser range finder is not necessary since humans don't have them. We get by with eyes that can measure distances with or without stereo enhancement and the stereo image facility helps us see things neither eye can make out alone.
OT: That sounds a bit purist. Just because we haven't evolved laser vision (yet) doesn't mean its not useful. If it needs less computation than stereo vision then I'd say use the tools you've got :)
