The Keyestudio SR01 Ultrasonic Sensor is a very affordable proximity/distance sensor that has been used mainly for object avoidance in various robotics projects. It essentially gives your Arduino eyes / spacial awareness and can prevent your robot from crashing or falling off a table. It has also been used in turret applications, water level sensing, and even as a parking sensor. This simple project will use the Keyestudio SR01 Ultrasonic Sensor with an Arduino and a Processing sketch to provide a neat little interactive display on your computer screen.
