Today we delve a little deeper into object detection with proximity sensors in our new PyroEDU course: An Introduction To Sensors. In this lesson we’ll look at everything there is to know about Ultrasonic Proximity Sensors and perform a fun experiment to give you a hands-on feel for how they work. Here’s a quick intro of what this PyroEDU lesson is all about:

Proximity detection is important for any application that needs to know if an object has crossed a sensor’s path. In this lesson we will learn how to use an ultrasonic proximity sensor to detect how far away an object is.
