This is an Arduino-based Proximity Sensor circuit wired using the popular HC-SR04 Ultrasonic ranging module,used here for non-contact object detection purpose. The HC-SR04 module includes ultrasonic ...

Buy arduino, buy sound shield, buy distance sensor shield, plug into each other, burn example code, stuff components inside box. Not only is this not a hack but he might as well have just bought a ...

Instead, it relies on an ultrasonic distance sensor to detect a hand (or foot) waved in front of the door. An Arduino Leonardo runs the show, sounding a buzzer when the ultrasonic sensor is triggered.

In this mode, you place the Ultrasonic Experiment set facing an object up to 200cm away, and press the “SEL” button to take a sample of the distance. Once the sample has been acquired, the LCD ...
