    Arduino and MadMapper with Ultrasonic Sensor

    by AgentD » Mon Mar 04, 2024 7:32 pm

    Hello!

    I am building an interaction projection installation which plays certain video clips or apply some affects to them when viewers come closer to the installation. I found this tutorial from MadMapper team that explains how to use sensors with Arduino UNO and Madmapper. See below.

    I found an Ultrasonic proximity/distant sensor "HC-SR04". My questions are

    - Does HC-SR04 work with Arduino? If not what other options are there?
    - Any specific versions of Arduino UNO should I get?
    - I want to keep the setting as compact as possible. Do I need the breadboard? If so is there smaller one available?
    - How do you normally handle casing for something like this? 3D printing?

    I would love to hear your inputs on this. Thank you so much in advance!

    A few web search seems to say yes. But I have not read the articles. Have a look.
    - Any specific versions of Arduino UNO should I get?
    No
    - I want to keep the setting as compact as possible. Do I need the breadboard? If so is there smaller one available?
    You just need the arduino connected with usb

    Thank you for your answer. You mean the sensor connected with the Arduino with cables and Arduino connected to a computer with USB?
