For EV3 and NXT ultrasonic Sensors Figure 6 is a zoomed-in X-Y graph for both the EV3 and NXT sensors. From the results, we can see that: - the EV3 sensor can detect very small changes in distance (measured to 1mm) - the NXT sensor, on the other hand, has a much harder time detecting changes in distance (measured to 1cm). The digital EV3 Ultrasonic Sensor generates sound waves and reads their echoes to detect and measure distance from objects. It can also send single sound waves to work as sonar or listen for a sound wave that triggers the start of a program. Students could design a traffic-monitoring system and measure distances between vehicles, for instance. EV3 Keyboard Shortcuts.
Description
Measure the distance between the EV3 Ultrasonic Sensor and thenearest object in front of the sensor.
The sensor can detect objects from approximately 5 to 255 centimetersaway.
When the nearest object is beyond the maximum range of the UltrasonicSensor, the sensor outputs the maximum value,
255
.The measured distances are approximate. For greater precision,calibrate the sensor output values against physical measurements.
The distance from which the sensor first detects an approachingobject depends on:
- The ultrasonic reflectance of the object, which isa function of the object’s size and composition. The sensordetects large hard objects from a greater distance than small softones. For example, the sensor might detect a pane of glass at 255cm and a hand puppet at 150 cm.
- The angle of incidence of the object relative to thesensor. The sensor detects objects directly in front of it at greaterdistances than objects off to the sides.
The block output emits values as uint8.
During simulations without hardware, this block emits zeros.See Block Produces Zeros or Does Nothing in Simulation.
