Hi. I've been working with these sensors for awhile. QuiteI've tried the hy-srf05, hc-sr04, urm34 v4, LvMaxEZ, (different topic, rcwl-0516, and a pir). All of these I've been able to use picaxe. And all have limited distance. (
In the lower price segment, this sensor has the best range - about 3 Meters / 10 feet. I've also tested the Sharp IR sensor - about 0.40 Meter / 1 feet. And a laser distance sensor ToF - about 1.2 Meters / 4 feet. Well, I guess you'll get the best results from the radar distance sensors, like those in high class cars. A quick search and I found some of them as spare parts. But they costs more than 300€. And I'm not sure if you can make the µC to operate it.
nenioc187 yeah, I was thinking radar, but haven't found any that reach out far enough. The ones I've tried are on/off like pir's. Not helpful for my purpose. Thanks though. Someday technology will catch up to crazy minds.
Try the US-100, it goes up to 4.5 m not quite the 5 m you want but close I am trying to find a digital output-distance sensor for PixRacer, but there is only the 180 dollars Lidar Lite :( Arduino is just not an option for flight controller.
Hi Sir, Good Day, am frm India, Can you pls make DIY Multi output mode (Centimeter, Inches, Feet, Millimeter) Distance sensor using generic Arduino with 16X2 LCD or 16X4 LCD
