Hello all; I am building the venerable PiDog and want to do some creative things with the head. Can I mount the camera and ultrasonic modules upside down and then right them in software?

Yes you can flip the camera image in software.

The ultrasonic doesn’t need to be flipped, its only distance measurement, so it behaves the same in any orientation.

Of course you can. You will encounter challenges in the following areas:

Designing a new assembly method

Rewriting many of the example code

This is going to be interesting — best of luck!
