Arduino code and video for Sharp IR distance module with LCD1602 Display
This is the Arduino code and video for Sharp Infrared Sensor Module wiht LCD1602
This video shows you how to measure the distance between 4cm to 180cm depending on the module, using Arduino. The result is displayed on LCD1602 display module.Sharp Analog output modules:
- 2 to 15 cm GP2Y0A51SK0F
- 4 to 30 cm GP2Y0A41SK0F / GP2Y0AF30 series
- 10 to 80 cm GP2Y0A21YK0F
- 10 to 150 cm GP2Y0A60SZLF
- 20 to 150 cm GP2Y0A02YK0F
- 100 to 550 cm GP2Y0A710K0F
