HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Sensor Module | Distance Measurement for Arduino

The HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Range Finder is a widely used sensor in applications requiring distance measurement and object detection.

The module features two eye-like projections on the front, which serve as the ultrasonic transmitter and receiver. The HC-SR04 uses sonar to determine the distance to an object, similar to how bats and dolphins navigate.

This ultrasonic sensor module combines a transmitter, receiver, and control circuit into a single, compact package. It offers excellent range accuracy and stable readings and is easy to use. Unlike Sharp rangefinders, its operation is unaffected by sunlight or black materials, although acoustically soft materials like cloth may be harder to detect.

The Trigger and Echo pins are the input/output (I/O) pins of the module and can be easily interfaced with a 恋之欲室 or Arduino. When the receiver detects a returning wave, the Echo pin goes high for a duration proportional to the time taken for the wave to return to the sensor.

The HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Ranging Module provides non-contact distance measurement capabilities within a range of 2cm to 400cm, with an accuracy of up to 3mm.
