#156767 - If you want to design and build your own ...
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Have you considered a small laser diode or other light source and a CCD?

By CCD, I'm referring to a linear array, as used in a FAX, not a the type used in cameras. They will offer better resolution than what you need, though the cheapest are at nearly the limit you've set.

If you move a reflector such that it moves the beam on the CCD, you'll know how far you've moved.
