[Klaus] wanted some sort of aid for parking his car, and after running across a $4 ultrasonic sensor, decided to build his own speaking distance sensor (.de, Google Translation). Inside [Klaus]’ ...
The main goal of this application is to design an ultrasonic qualitative distance estimation sensor using Dialog Semiconductor’s SLG47105V. The system is designed using high-voltage (HV) macrocells ...
A low-cost (~$100), do-it-yourself (DIY) ultrasonic water level sensor/datalogger has been designed, constructed, and tested for use in education, citizen/community science, and research settings. The ...
For years, ultrasonic sensors have been used in a wide range of applications including fish finders, parking sensors in cars and burglar alarms. In this article, we describe the characteristics of ...
Proximity sensors that use ultrasonic sound waves calculate distance to an object using the time it takes to receive the echo from an ultrasonic burst. But, similar bursts from other sensors in close ...
One of the biggest mistakes Tesla made last year was removing ultrasonic sensors from the cars without offering an alternative. With the 2022.45.11 software update, cars without ultrasonic sensors ...
As the world struggles with the impact of COVID-19, businesses and governments are seeking ways to safely restart global commerce and local economies to mitigate the financial impact of the virus.
Tesla removed the ultrasonic sensors from the recently-built cars in a move many framed as a cost-cutting measure. Without them, some parking features and distance measurements to obstacles around the ...
Sponsored by Texas Instruments: These flexible sensors, especially when used with microwave or mmWave radar, can provide different but complementary views of the environs. Ultrasonics refers to ...
Chirp Microsystems’ CH-201 MEMS sonar-on-chip time-of-flight (ToF) sensor offers a sensing range of up to 5 meters for room-scale applications. Expanding the SmartSonic MEMS ultrasonic platform, the ...
Sometimes, it’s time to shut down the oscilloscope, and break out the cardboard and paints. If you’re wondering what for, well, here’s a reminder of an Instructable from [CrazyScience], that brings us ...
