The project is an Arduino-based radar system that detects objects in its surroundings using an ultrasonic sensor. The system simulates the behavior of a real radar by scanning an area and measuring the distance to nearby objects.
How it works
The system uses a servo motor to rotate an ultrasonic sensor from 0° to 180°.
At each angle, the sensor sends ultrasonic waves and calculates the distance based on the time taken for the echo to return.
The collected data (angle and distance) is sent to the computer through serial communication, which can be used to visualize the radar output.
