hello
I am measuring distance from here to there.
thank you
you may use ultrasonic transducrs as TX and Rx- send a pluse of Ultrasonic signal as TX while at the same time sarting a timerQuote:

hello
thank you mvs_sarma
I found many codes for this project and they use the same thing you say, but all of them written in C language , and I can't program with this language.
And I found another written in asm with AT89C2051.
I understand that how it works but I can't write it in picbasic.
thank you
I have an example of using the Devantech SRF04 sonar range-finder with PBP in our
Micro-Bot projects section here http://www.rentron.com/Micro-Bot/Sonar.htm
Devantech makes the SRF04 schematic & source code available for folks that prefer to build
one themselves: http://www.robot-electronics.co.uk/htm/srf1.shtml
They have several more here: http://www.robot-electronics.co.uk/s...angers1999.htm
The Parallax PING module linked to by mackrackit should also be pretty simple to use.
Hello
Thank you very much for your help.
sorry but how can I make distance meter without using ultrasound generator, e.g. infrared or laser or other methods.
because the tools of ultrasound doesn't offer in my country.
Thank you.
With standard off-the-shelf type IR components, this isn't incredibly precise, but here's
one way to do it: http://www.rentron.com/PicBasic/infr..._detection.htm
If you want something pre-manufactured, and a bit more accurate, then do a Google search
for Sharp GP2D12. I've never used on myself, but I hear they're fairly accurate.
Laser range-finders are a great deal more complex + expensive, but still an option if you have
the budget. Here's an intro http://www.repairfaq.org/sam/lr/
You can find a LOT more with a quick search at Google.
Hello
Thank you very much Bruce ...
You could use a wheel and an encoder.Quote:
