ppt about the arduino based ultrasonic distance measurement
Ultrasonic sensors are great tools to measure distance without actual contact and used at several places like water level measurement, distance measurement etc. This is an efficient way to measure small distances precisely. In this project we have used an Ultrasonic Sensor to determine the distance of an obstacle from the sensor. Basic principal of ultrasonic distance measurement is based on ECHO. When sound waves are transmitted in environment then waves are return back to origin as ECHO after striking on the obstacle. So we only need to calculate the travelling time of both sounds means outgoing time and returning time to origin after striking on the obstacle. As speed of the sound is known to us, after some calculation we can calculate the distance.
Components Used
Arduino Pro Mini
Ultrasonic sensor Module
16x2 LCD
Scale
Bread board
9 volt battery
Connecting wires
Ultrasonic Sensor Module
Ultrasonic sensor HC-SR04 is used here to measure distance in range of 2cm-400cm with accuracy of 3mm. The sensor module consists of ultrasonic transmitter, receiver and the control circuit. The working principle of ultrasonic sensor is as follows:
High level signal is sent for 10us using Trigger.
The module sends eight 40 KHz signals automatically, and then detects whether pulse is received or not.
If the signal is received, then it is through high level. The time of high duration is the time gap between sending and receiving the signal.
