- Опубликовано: 26 май 2024
- Description:
Calling all Arduino enthusiasts! This video dives into using Wokwi, the online simulator, to connect an ultrasonic sensor with your Arduino Uno and calculate distance like a pro.
We'll cover everything you need to know:
Choosing the right ultrasonic sensor for your project
Wokwi Setup: Connecting the sensor to Arduino virtually
Writing simple Arduino code to send and receive ultrasonic signals
Understanding the distance calculation formula
Simulating distance measurement in Wokwi (step-by-step)
This beginner-friendly tutorial unlocks the power of ultrasonic sensors for your Arduino projects without the need for physical hardware. Wokwi allows you to experiment and build confidence before moving to real-world applications.
Bonus: Learn how to modify this code to display the measured distance on your computer screen.
Basic Applications:
Obstacle Avoidance Robot: This classic project equips a robot with an ultrasonic sensor to detect obstacles in its path and navigate around them. Perfect for beginners to learn about sensor integration and basic programming.
Automatic Door Opener: Use the sensor to trigger a door opening mechanism (servo motor or solenoid) when someone approaches, creating a touchless and convenient entrance.
Parking Distance Sensor: Mount the sensor on a car or robot to measure the distance from nearby objects, providing an audible or visual alert to prevent collisions.
Liquid Level Detector: By aiming the sensor at the surface of a liquid container, you can detect changes in level and trigger actions like refilling or shutting down pumps.
Intermediate Applications:
Smart Trash Can: The sensor can detect when someone approaches and automatically open the lid for a hygienic and hands-free experience.
Line Follower Robot: Use two ultrasonic sensors facing forward to detect lines on the ground and program the robot to follow them, creating a path-following robot.
Non-Contact Object Counter: By strategically placing the sensor, you can count objects passing through a specific area without physical contact.
Automatic Pet Feeder: The sensor can detect the presence of your pet and trigger the release of food from a dispenser at specific times.
Advanced Applications:
Ultrasonic Ranging System: By incorporating multiple sensors facing different directions, you can create a system that maps the surroundings of your robot or project.
Air Quality Monitor: While not directly measuring air quality, the sensor can detect changes in dust particle density in the air, potentially indicating changes in air quality.
Self-Parking Car Model: This advanced project can simulate a self-parking car using multiple ultrasonic sensors and complex programming to navigate a parking space.
Automatic Irrigation System: The sensor can measure soil moisture and trigger the activation of water pumps when the soil falls below a certain moisture level.
