You would have probably read about the SONAR that’s used in ships. By taking the same concept into a small form factor we get a distance sensor. This sensor is available in multiple variants and I’ll ...

This is an Arduino-based Proximity Sensor circuit wired using the popular HC-SR04 Ultrasonic ranging module,used here for non-contact object detection purpose. The HC-SR04 module includes ultrasonic ...

[mircemk] shows how to create a simple non-contact proximity sensor using little more than an Arduino Nano board, and a convenient software library intended to measure the value of capacitors. 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 ...

Loading cement sacks into trucks requires precise counting for traceability, yet manual methods are error-prone and often ...

Parking sensors have become a must-have these days given the crowded cities we live in, but instead of paying hundreds of dollars to get them installed in your car, why not build your own at home?

Electronic enthusiasts may be interested in a new open source infrared sensor which has been created to support both Raspberry Pi and Arduino powered projects. The IR Detector proximity sensor has ...

If you are interested in building your very own mini DIY LiDAR sensor for less than $40, capable of detecting objects in a 360° area, you may be interested in a new Arduino Instructables project ...

Advances in embedded systems and sensors have enabled efficient, intelligent surveillance solutions that improve safety and ...
