Lesson 74: Using two Sharp Infrared sensors with Arduino
Part 7: Obstacle Avoidance with Arduino
This video shows you how to use two Sharp infrared sensors to measure the distance between 4cm to 180cm depending on the module, using Arduino. 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
- 00:00 Introduction
- 03:33 Wiring Explained
- 04:09 Code Explained
- 08:57 Demonstration
