A new kit from AliExpress has prompted me to build a remote-controlled vehicle. The kit consists of an Arduino, an expansion board, and a PS2 controller with receiver. Components The chassis of the vehicle is formed by a kit from AliExpress LINK. This kit contains an acrylic platform with two motors, wheels, and some accessories. For control, I am using...

Controlling the HC-SR04 ultrasonic distance sensor with the Arduino UNO. Basic circuit setup (I later changed the pins from 0/1 to 2/3 because the ISP is still connected to 0/1). Test program Here's a small test program. It filters out values that are too small and too large, and allows for averaging over a defined interval. SR04Test.ino Here could…

Controlling an US-100 ultrasonic distance sensor with a Raspberry Pi 3 (or earlier). I have only found tutorials for the SR-04, but this is integrated analogously to the US-100. Hardware Pi 3 (or older, please pay attention to the correct pins) US-100 (ultrasonic sensor) Breadboard (for easier setup) Various cables (pre-made pin header cables) Setup The US-100 operates at 3.3V…

The US-100 is an ultrasonic distance sensor with a supply voltage of 3V – 5V. It can therefore be operated directly with modern microcontrollers with a 3.3V supply voltage. Views Facts Technical Data Pin Assignment Supply Voltage 3-5V Trigger Echo Ground Ground Special Features The US-100 can be operated in two modes. In serial mode, the jumper on the back is set. …

The HCSR-04 is a widely used and correspondingly inexpensive distance sensor. It determines distance using ultrasound and is easy to operate with common 5V microcontrollers. The datasheets contradict each other regarding the maximum distance specification, fluctuating between 3 and 4 metres. I haven't yet had a module in my hand that reached 4m. With …
