How It Works

The HC-SR04 uses ultrasonic sound waves to calculate distance. Send a 10 us HIGH pulse to the Trig pin - the module emits eight 40 kHz bursts, then the Echo pin goes HIGH for a duration proportional to the round-trip time of the sound wave. Use the formula Distance = (Echo pulse width x Speed of sound) / 2 to convert the reading into centimeters or inches. Most Arduino libraries handle this automatically in a single line of code.

Pin Configuration

VCC	+5V DC Power Supply
Trig	Trigger Input - send 10 us pulse to start measurement
Echo	Echo Output - returns pulse width proportional to distance
GND	Ground

Project Ideas

• Obstacle-Avoiding Robot: Mount the sensor on a servo to scan surroundings and navigate autonomously.
• Smart Parking System: Detect whether a parking slot is occupied and display availability on an LCD or web dashboard.
• Water Level Monitor: Place the sensor above a tank to measure water level without contact and trigger alerts or pump control.
• Digital Measuring Tape: Build a handheld distance meter with an OLED display for quick, contactless measurements.
• Gesture / Proximity Control: Map hand distance to volume, brightness, or motor speed for touchless interfaces.
• Security & Intruder Alert: Trigger a buzzer or notification when an object enters a defined zone.
• Learning & Education: Ideal first sensor project for students - simple wiring, easy code, and instant visual results.

Quick-Start Arduino Example

Wire VCC -> 5V, GND -> GND, Trig -> Digital Pin 9, Echo -> Digital Pin 10, then upload:

#define TRIG 9
#define ECHO 10

void setup() {
 Serial.begin(9600);
 pinMode(TRIG, OUTPUT);
 pinMode(ECHO, INPUT);
}

void loop() {
 digitalWrite(TRIG, LOW);
 delayMicroseconds(2);
 digitalWrite(TRIG, HIGH);
 delayMicroseconds(10);
 digitalWrite(TRIG, LOW);

long duration = pulseIn(ECHO, HIGH);
float distance_cm = duration * 0.0343 / 2.0;

 Serial.print("Distance: ");
 Serial.print(distance_cm);
 Serial.println(" cm");
 delay(500);
}
