Ultrasonic Sensor – Revolutionize Your Distance Measurements
HC-SR04 (2020 version) is an open ultrasonic ranging module with a size fully compatible with the old version and adding UART and IIC functions. By default, the software and hardware are fully compatible with the old version of HC-SR04; it can be set to UART or IIC mode through a resistor. 2CM blind zone, 4.5M typical longest distance measurement, 2.2mA working current. Using the upgraded demodulation chip RCWL-9206, MCU with UART and IIC functions; make the peripherals more concise, the working voltage is wider (3-5.5V), and the interface functions are more.
How Ultrasonic Sensors Work:
- Transmitter: The sensor consists of a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter emits high-frequency sound waves, typically in the ultrasonic range (above 20,000 Hz).
- Sound Wave Propagation: These sound waves travel through the air at a constant speed until they encounter an obstacle in their path.
- Reflection: When the sound waves hit an object, they bounce back toward the sensor.
- Receiver: The sensor’s receiver detects the reflected sound waves.
- Time Measurement: By measuring the time it takes for the sound waves to travel to the object and back, the sensor calculates the distance to the object. This calculation is based on the speed of sound in the air, which is approximately 343 meters per second (or 0.0343 cm/µs) at room temperature.
Key Features and Benefits:
- Non-Contact Measurement: Ultrasonic sensors are non-contact sensors, which means they do not physically touch the objects they are detecting. This feature makes them suitable for measuring various materials, including liquids and solids.
- Accuracy: They provide accurate distance measurements with high precision, making them valuable in applications where precision is crucial.
- Wide Range: Ultrasonic sensors can measure distances ranging from a few centimeters to several meters, depending on the specific sensor model and configuration.
- Versatility: These sensors are used in a wide range of applications, including industrial automation, robotics, automotive systems (e.g., parking assistance), security systems (e.g., motion detectors), and even in consumer electronics.
Applications:
- Distance Measurement: Ultrasonic sensors are commonly used for measuring distances in industrial automation, such as ensuring precise positioning of objects on conveyor belts or detecting the presence of objects in a production line.
- Obstacle Detection: They are used in robotics and autonomous vehicles to detect obstacles and avoid collisions.
- Liquid Level Measurement: Ultrasonic sensors are employed to measure the level of liquids in tanks, making them valuable in industries like agriculture, wastewater treatment, and chemical processing.
- Proximity Sensing: These sensors can detect the presence of objects, making them useful for applications like automatic doors, security systems, and touchless faucets.
