Arduino Radar / Sonar, using Arduino & Processing | Full Tutorial

Mish Mash Labs present our take on the Arduino based Radar project.
We used the Arduino Uno, the SG90 servo and the HC-SR04 Ultrasonic sensor.

It's not technically a radar as it doesn't use radio waves, but rather sound. it's actually a sodar system, which stands for sound detection and ranging.

[@carolcernea2616]

Thank you, amazing project. I would like to ask you, after successfully I create this project, I am trying to do the following project. when the radar detect something I want one of my DJI Mini drone, to flight to that area. Can you please guide me how can I do it? Thank you in advance

[@divyshah8437]

thanks for such an amazing sodar system

[@MishMashLabs]

Thanks for watching

[@bhalugg]

sir can we connect one LED and one Piezo Buzzer to this .Will Radar work still that same way

[@roberttx0015]

how can u increase the range of the radar and make it display on the processing (ex: 1m)

[@coffeetablemedia360]

hi, this is an awesome and straight forward instructional thankyou so much ive watched so many that dont work, im strugglig at the end it says "make sure that the font has been copied to the data folder of your sketch, and opens the sketch and goes gray.

[@christopherboyd952]

Can I use a lidar for the same concept I have a tf mini and keep running into problems

[@garvit_panwar]

can we use Arduino uno r3

[@thekianshow11]

how come my ultrasonic sensor is not working?

[@reqruined]

parseİnt(float) does not exist it says can you help me?

[@siddhantamondal2207]

hey,
In my case, the radar is running only for 1 cycle, after that, it gets stuck to the same position
Any way to solve this error?
I checked the code as well, didn't found any error in it

[@MishMashLabs]

Make sure the code is identical and make if you're using a bigger servo motor check the power needed to supply it. Sometimes servos require more than the arduino can supply. You may need an external power source

[@asHh959]

Hi man do you know how to solve this problem: error opening serial port COM5(Arduino Uno) : Port not found. I look for the name of the port as you said

[@MishMashLabs]

Your port may be different to mine. You could restart your computer. if you have never used the arduino before you may need to install drivers for your USB chip, ch340 is a common one. Another possibility is that your Arduino has an error if you cannot upload and may need a bootloader flash.

[@purelove4386]

change the port name to COM5 only, had the same problem and i solved it that way

[@ronnamia4765]

Is it possible to connect it with gsm when the distance of the object reach certain area and call/sms us?

[@MishMashLabs]

It sure is, you just need a GSM shield. An easier alternative might be a wifi shield and email alert if wifi is available.

[@Pato2125]

very nice video. why not to use min. and max. angle 0 to 180? is there any risk related to the limit angles? thx

[@MishMashLabs]

I didn't use 0-180 as I found my servo was struggling with the weight of the sensor and holder and becoming unstable,
The only limitations are the ability of your servo as the graphic should handle 0-180.

[@gamelife6446]

hello why the processing screen remains gray

[@MishMashLabs]

Have you setting it up correctly, correct board selected

[@marinenav8]

Have you example rotation 360° ?

it doesnt work bro, can you help me

[@Piksar6666]

is the sketch missing ?

[@MishMashLabs]

Thanks for pointing this out. We've fixed the link in the description and here it is too!

[@lielgoldshtein1740]

Can you make the detection range higher like 100 m or 1 km?

[@whistler2000]

Not with this sensor you would need an real radar module to do that.

[@SalmanKhan-ks2zo]

can i use processing 4

[@MishMashLabs]

I have never tested it, but please share how it goes

[@PhillipJFry69420]

yes I am using it now but I am having an issue with; "PFont orcFont" idk what to do about this or how to change it

Hey sir...can you give me your processing code... please help me
