About the Project
Starting with the simplest version first so students(you) can understand how the ultrasonic sensor works before adding LED and OLED.
Components
- Arduino UNO
- HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Sensor
- Jumper wires
Connections
| HC-SR04 |
Arduino UNO |
| VCC |
5V |
| GND |
GND |
| TRIG |
Pin 9 |
| ECHO |
Pin 10 |
Steps
- TRIG pin sends sound waves.
- ECHO pin receives the reflected sound.
- Arduino measures the time taken and calculates the distance.
- The distance is shown in the Serial Monitor.
