With the help of this project we can easily measure the distance in inches or cm. We can use this sensor to measure the distance from 2cm to 400 cm Or 1” to 13 feet.The Ultrasonic sensor uses sonar to determine distance to an object like bats or dolphins do. It's operation is not affected by sunlight or black material like Sharp rangefinders are. It comes complete with ultrasonic transmitter and receiver module.

Circuit Diagram-1:
You can use the Schematic below to connect the circuit.
Connection Procedure:
1. LCD with Arduino:
16x2 LCD Module Pin diagram:
LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) screen is an electronic display module. Easily programmable and preferred over seven segments. Connect LCD (GND, R/W, Led-) pins to the Arduino's GND pin and (VCC, Led+) pins to the Arduino's 5V pin. Connect (VEE) pin to a 10K potentiometer. Now Connect LCD (RS, EN, DB4, DB5, DB6, DB7)
pins to the Arduino's (10, 9, 5, 4, 3, 2).
pins to the Arduino's (10, 9, 5, 4, 3, 2).
2. Ultrasonic Sensor With Arduino:
This Ultrasonic Sensor has 4 pins which i've used in this tutorial. Connect its Vcc and GND pins to the Arduino's GND and VCC Pins and (Trig , Echo) to Arduino's (12, 13) pins.3. Speaker With Arduino:
Connect the Black Wire (GND) and red wire (VCC) to the Arduino's GND and pin num 7 respectively.4. Potentiometer with LCD:
Potentionmeter has 3 pins, connect its middle pin with LCD VEE pin and Other two with Arduino's GND and VCC Respectively.Arduino Code:
Open this code with Arduino ide Software. Upload it to Arduino. You can also upgrade the code for better performance.Get The Code
