The HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor uses sonar to determine the distance to an object like bats or dolphins do. This Ultrasonic Sensor module is a transmitter, a receiver and a control circuit in one single pack!! It has very handy and compact construction. It offers excellent range accuracy and stable readings in an easy-to-use package. Its operation is not affected by sunlight or black material like Sharp rangefinders are (although acoustically soft materials like cloth can be difficult to detect).
The Trigger and the Echo pins are the I/O pins of this module and hence they can be connected to the I/O pins of the microcontroller/Arduino. When the receiver detects return wave the Echo pin goes high for a particular amount of time which will be equal to the time taken for the wave to return back to the sensor.
Package Includes:
1 x HC-SR04-Ultrasonic Sensor
1 x Ultrasonic Sensor Mounting Bracket.
