A mini project for beginner to measure the distance between sensor and an object without using measuring scale. It can be constructed using bread-board, Arduino Board and easily available components from electronics labs or Shops such as an Ultrasonic Distance Measuring Sensor Module, wires etc.
Objective: To measure the distance from the System with opposite still object and displaying it on Terminal Screen. Note that instead of PCs serial port, user can display the measured distance at Board End on LCD module by changing the code slightly.
Learning Curve
The system uses UART or serial port of Arduino Board to transfer the detected distance value to user screen [on PC’s Serial Terminal Window].
Interfacing the readily available Sensor module with Arduino Board and writing code to read/manipulate it is done in this system.
The Arduino board is used as Controller Module while building this system.
Applications:
- The system is used at garage for detecting owner's vehicle near door and opening the shutter automatically.
- In vehicle related project, where auto obstacle detection opposite to it is required.
- Used wherever simple auto distance detection feature is required.
