we have a project about ultrasonic obstacle detection pls help us how to program code interfacing avr 328

ultrasonic sensor code for obstacle detection using avr

It is essential to give your robot eyes for preventing crashes. Ultrasonic sensors, also known as transducers, have a similar working system as a radar or sonar by interpreting the echoes of radio or sound waves generated by the sensor. In this way, a robot can detect obstacles and the distance to obstacles. In this article, we make an overview of most popular ultrasonic sensors used in robotic applications and tutorials to learn how to interface and programming these sensors in order to build robots.

The working principle of an ultrasonic sensor is simple and use high-frequency sound waves that are evaluated when the sensor received back the waves. To determine the distance between the robot and object, the sensor measure the elapsed time between sending and receiving the waves.

These sensors are ideal for measurement in different environments where measurements cannot be affected by the surface, material, light, dust, or other noises.

In robotics, ultrasonic sensors are used in a wide range of applications including here the measurement of distance, presence detection, or detect the position of an object.
