Ultra Sonic Ranging Sensor

Overview
Ultrasonic sensor provides stable and accurate distance measurements from 2cm to 450cm. It has an focus of less than 15 degrees and an accuracy of about 2mm.

Ultra Sonic Ranging Sensor:
Description:


This sensor uses ultrasonic sound to measure distance just like bats and dolphins do. Ultrasonic sound has such a high pitch that humans cannot hear it. This particular sensor sends out an ultrasonic sound that has a frequency of about 40kHz. The sensor has two main parts: a transducer that creates an ultrasonic sound and another listens to it's echo. To use this sensor to measure distance, the robot's brain must measure the amount of time it takes for the ultrasonic sound to travel.
