/* Ping))) Sensor
|
|
|
|
This sketch reads a PING))) ultrasonic rangefinder and returns the
|
|
distance to the closest object in range. To do this, it sends a pulse
|
|
to the sensor to initiate a reading, then listens for a pulse
|
|
to return. The length of the returning pulse is proportional to
|
|
the distance of the object from the sensor.
|
|
|
|
The circuit:
|
|
* +V connection of the PING))) attached to +5V
|
|
* GND connection of the PING))) attached to ground
|
|
* SIG connection of the PING))) attached to digital pin 7
