Inspiration - From Arduino.cc. I tinkered around IOT built-in projects there. Then simulate it in an online simulator named Tinkercad. I tested them in Tinkercad
What it does
1. Measuring distance of nearby objects 2. And display on the serial monitor
How we built it
Requirement - 1. Arduino 2. Display serial monitor 3. ultrasonic distance sensor 4. wires 5. Power source We built an online simulator and tested code in it. We started with LED on/off code, it get passed. We then move ahead with the distance measurement code and it run successfully and showed distance.
Challenges we ran into
During the setup, I was troubled with wiring. Then taking reference from documentation, wired to the right node.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We did it and the distance measurement code run successfully and showed distance.
What we learned
- About Arduino and its architecture.
- Setup and connect to computer and code.
- Online simulator if you don't have Arduino but can make projects using tinkercad.
What's next for Arduino Distance Finder
will introduce temperature measurement in it
