This instructable describes how to create a non-contact range-finder using an Arduino and an HC-SR04 ultrasonic module to measure distances in the range 2cm – 400cm. The accuracy is typically +/- 3mm depending on distance, air temperature, and humidity. Step 1: Parts List Very few parts are required: 1 only HC-SR04 ultrasonic module or similar […]

When I started my career in control systems I was fascinated with the many different ways that machines could be interfaced to the environment they operated in. Limit switches (electrical and optical), encoders, resolvers, strain gauges, thermocouples… the control system engineer had a long list of sensors to choose from. And the list has grown

The TMPM46BF10FG expands Toshiba’s existing TX04 range and adds a selection of enhanced security features, ideally suited to applications in Internet of Things (IoT) devices, energy management systems, sensor technology and industrial equipment. Users of secure communications control
his is a preliminary instructable that will take you through the steps I took to get the SR04 ULTRASONIC SENSOR connected and working to the Arduino. It will then be incorporated to my mini environment monitor. Eventually, if it all fits, it will end up in a Startrek toy tricorder casing I found in my
