Infrared certainly has its uses, but if you’re trying to locate objects, ultrasonic detection is far superior. It’s contact-less, undetectable to the human ear, and it isn’t affected by smoke, dust, ...

I recently had to build an infrared close proximity sensor that could tell if something was dropped in a parcel delivery drop box. After some searching, I ended up using a microcontroller and a piece ...

It's winter ... again ... and time for the all-too-common issue of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) proximity-sensor problems, compliments of the seasonal ...

Just about every “getting started with microcontrollers” kit, Arduino or otherwise, includes an ultrasonic distance sensor ...

But, similar bursts from other sensors in close proximity may interfere with the echo timing. When that happens, the sensors suffer from a condition called cross talk. Interference from cross talk ...

This one is an unusual smart home project, potentially - how to monitor a fish tank’s health with an AI-enabled ultrasonic sensor system. The detailed project is highlighted on Hackser.io and features ...
