Shelved this one to work on other things - kept for sentimental reasons

The main base station (Master) needs to be able to time the delay between an IR flash and the arrival of an ultrasound pulse (my best idea for estimating distance). I was thinking of offloading some of the work to a phone by using the headphone jack as IO. However, the post on teensies made me wonder if detecting a 25kHz tome would be doable fast enough on a low cost arm processor. This would make the project more self-contained and probably cheaper... Anyone have thoughts on this, or experience detecting specific frequencies with a micro?
