Honestly, if it weren’t for the ultrasonic distance sensor protruding from the spherical body, you might think that the entire robot was just a little Wiffle ball.

Seeing as Arduino is good for controlling motors and sensors, Randy added a PING ultrasonic sensor to the front of the vehicle too.

The sensors attached to the Arduino had an approximate scanning range of 3m, and the ultrasonic units were modified to broadcast an analog signal at 40 kHz.

Sonair’s 3D ultrasonic sensor enables 360° obstacle detection using acoustic detection and ranging (ADAR) for safe AMR navigation.

This is an Arduino-based Proximity Sensor circuit wired using the popular HC-SR04 Ultrasonic ranging module,used here for non-contact object detection purpose. The HC-SR04 module includes ultrasonic ...

A new category of sensing technology transforms mobile robot vision from 2D to 3D, improves safety performance and provides 50-80% cost savings compared to traditional, LiDAR- ...

About Sonair Sonair is an award-winning deep tech startup building a breakthrough, patented 3D ultrasonic sensor that enables true machine autonomy by making robots safe, affordable, and efficient.

There are plenty of Arduino-based robots in the world, but actually building one is a bit tough if you're not familiar with Arduino programming. But a company called ArcBotics has created an ...

ADAR enables 3D 360-degree obstacle detection around autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) at a significantly lower cost than the sensor packages used today.
