Arduino and MadMapper with Ultrasonic Sensor

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.

No

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?
