This is a ultrasonic radar device made using Arduino uno and ultrasonic sensor that also shows the distance of the obstacle in CENTIMETERS. And shows the radar in yyour computer/laptop/mobile..
WORKING PROCEDURE
The ultrasonic sensor sends pings that returns us the time traveled by the signal in microseconds. From there we convert that time to distance as we know the speed of sound is 343 meters/seconds .
For this project i have programmed the micro controller such that when
any object is situated at a distance more than 40 cm the GREEN LED will turn on , and at a distance less than 40 cm the RED LED will
start blinking.
Keep in Mind:
- It might get congested, so for practicing it is better to use multiple breadboards
- A capacitor of 470UF should be used to solve the jittering of the servo motor
-
Resistors of at least 100 Ohms must be placed in series with the
LEDs to avoid any damage to the LEDs.
THE COMPONENTS
- ARDUINO UNO BOARD
- LED:--> RED-GREEN [ according to your wish ]
