Story

Hello Every One

This project is excellent and simple at the same time. In this project, we are tracking a single item in a single dimension and measuring its distance using a single ultrasonic sensor.

Through this project, we can determine whether an object is moving by determining how far it is travelling, how near it is getting, or whether it is staying put. The best part is Ardi-32, which has impressive specifications and intriguing features. For example, IoT projects or projects requiring wireless communication, Ardi-32 boards are the best choice because they come with built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity.

The sensor sends out signals using ultrasonic sound waves, and after they are reflected, Combining the accuracy of the Ultrasonic Sensor with the processing capacity of the ESP32 enables developers to build sophisticated applications that require precise distance measurements.

Connections

Ardi-32

This board is particularly valuable for tasks that demand substantial computational power, such as data processing, signal analysis, and advanced control systems. The Ardi-32 compatibility with a vast array of libraries and shields further extends its utility. It serves as an excellent platform for IoT projects, robotics, automation, and any scenario that requires both processing muscle and versatile interfacing capabilities.

Features of Ardi-32

Powered by powerful ESP32-S3-WROOM-1 module with inbuild Wi-Fi and BLE support.
Arduino UNO Form factor, so you can connect 3.3V compatible Arduino shields.
SD card slot for storage and data transfer.
The facility of Type C USB interface for programming and to the power board.
Boot and Reset buttons are available to operate in various modes.
Multifunction GPIO breakout supporting general I/O, UART, I2C, SPI, ADC & PWM functions.
Multi-tune Buzzer to add audio alert into the project
Multi-platform support like Arduino IDE, Espressif IDF, and MicroPython/CircuitPython.
Comes with HID support, so the device can simulate a mouse or keyboard.

Ultrasonic Sensor

The ultrasonic sensor is a remarkable device that harnesses sound waves beyond human hearing to measure distances and detect objects. Emitting ultrasonic pulses and analyzing their echoes, the sensor calculates the time taken for waves to travel to objects and back. This information enables accurate distance calculations and proximity detection, making it invaluable for applications like robotics, automation, and security systems.

Features of Ultrasonic Sensor

It can operate without physical contact with the target object, making them suitable for applications where contact is not desirable or feasible.
They accurately measure distances by emitting ultrasonic sound waves and calculating the time it takes for the waves to travel to the object and back.
They offer high accuracy in distance measurement, making them suitable for applications that require precise measurements.
Ultrasonic sensors can measure distances over a wide range, from a few centimeters to several meters, depending on the sensor's specifications.

Software Setup

Download and Install Arduino IDE

Steps to Install ESP32Board

1 / 4 • step 1 (Open Arduino IDE software)

In case you don't see com port then you will have to install CP2102 driver from Link. Download and install as per your operating system.

  digitalWrite(trigPin,LOW);
  delayMicroseconds(2);
  digitalWrite(trigPin,HIGH);
  delayMicroseconds(5);
  digitalWrite(trigPin,LOW);
  duration = pulseIn(echoPin,HIGH);
  //distance = (340*100*(duration/2))/1000000;
  distance = duration*0.017;
  return distance;
