Arduino Ultrasonic Motion Sensor: Motion Sensor and LED project 

Buen día, se puede agregar un buzzer ¿'

@@ericknova2989 Hola, no hablo muy bien español. Sí, puedes agregar un buzzer. Puedo hacer un vídeo sobre eso si estás interesado.

@@Waiduino Hola, si, seria interesante agregar un buzzer que se active con el código que creaste.

@@ericknova2989 Haré mi próximo video sobre cómo agregar un buzzer para este proyecto. Gracias por tu comentario.

@@ericknova2989 Se acaba de publicar un nuevo vídeo sobre el sensor y el buzzer. ¡Disfrutar! Gracias por tu comentario

Haha thanks so much! I try to reply to every comment since I’m thankful you guys watch my videos and because I mainly wanted to help other people create and learn about circuits. I always try to reply to comments so thanks for noticing!!

Yea of course! Thanks so much for your kind words.

Thank you so much! Were you able to make the circuit?

Thank you!! Did you build the project?

Thank you so much for your comment! It is possible to use the infrared sensor as a level sensor however it would require much more instructions than I can show here. Would you like me to create a video to show how to create this project?

No problem! Glad you enjoyed and learned something. Did you have to make it for a school project?

Sure which motors are you interested in? Like servo?

LMAOO thanks for the support! Were you able to built it without any problems?

oh wait nvm i think i got it.

Sounds good thanks for commenting! Were you able to create the circuit?

@@Waiduino it works thanks.

🤣🤣 underrated comment 😆😆 Did you build the circuit successfully?

@@Waiduino I think so 🥹🥹.. nooo

for this project, i don’t think pulseIn is a variable, it should be a library. That’s why it has the parameters (the things inside the brackets if u look at the code). Did you copy directly from the comment?

Yep! If I am not mistaken, I used the hc-sr04 in my video as well as the uno. Thanks for your comment!

I believe it is 500 or 1k but whatever value you use is fine. The lower the value, the brighter the LED.

Sure I found these all in the Arduino uno kit. It uses ultrasonic sensor, 3 LED, and an arduino uno. Let me know of you need it more specific.

You can find that all in the circuit diagram. The GND should connect to the railing which is connected to a resistor which connects to the negative side of the LED and the positive side connects to a pin on the Arduino designated in your code. You can find a walkthrough in my first ever video. Hope this helped!

@@Waiduino oh thank you

@@mvsaikartheek633 Sure no problem! Let me know if you have any other questions.

@@Waiduino okay 👍

Hi! It should be 330 ohms, I’m not entirely sure. The lower resistance, the brighter your LED is gonna be. Hope this helps!

Hi! I’ve had this issue in the past. Pay attention to where the 5v railing is and you might find the cause of the issue. Did you make sure all connections are correct?

@@Waiduino im not sure if my breadboard is properly or if the video is inverted u are saying to plug in the Sensor closest to the negative side right? Sorry i have a project on this and im stressed

@@zainraza7126 If you are referring to the sensor, the white wire is plugged to the rightmost pin on the sensor (the sensor circles should be pointed to the right). Is that what you are referring to?

Hi so basically you would need to modify the code. I will do that for you right now if you would like. You just have to set the status to each LEF as on and then every second it detects a hand, it will turn off an LED by turning it off. Let me comment the code now

@@Waiduino ok

const int echo=13; const int trig=12; int LED1=2; int LED2=3; int LED3=4; int LED4=5; int duration=0; int distance=0; void setup() { pinMode(trig,OUTPUT); pinMode(echo,INPUT); pinMode(LED1,OUTPUT); pinMode(LED2,OUTPUT); pinMode(LED3,OUTPUT); pinMode(LED4,OUTPUT); Serial.begin(9600); } void loop() { digitalWrite(trig,HIGH); delay(1000); digitalWrite(trig,LOW); digitalWrite(LED1,HIGH); digitalWrite(LED2,HIGH); digitalWrite(LED3,HIGH); digitalWrite(LED4,HIGH); duration=pulseIn(echo,HIGH); distance= (duration/2)/28.5; if (distance=10 && distance 20&& distance

Does that work? Let me know

@@Waiduino it doesn't

I believed I used like 500 or 1k but feel free to use whatever you want. Lower resistance means brighter color so I normally like LEDS to shine more

Hola! Gracias por tu comentario. ¿Quieres conectar el arduino a un teléfono?

Hmm i can assist you personally. Have you used a resistor and followed the diagram exactly? What pin did you attach it to on the Arduino?

I used a 1k ohm resistor. The higher resistance, the less bright your LED will be. What is your question about the wires?

Did you notice that one pin of the LED is longer than the other? Did you follow that part?

@@Waiduino heal all good friend thank you :)

@@jesussaquin6266 Did my advice work? Glad everything works!!

Yea for sure. I talked about this in my very first video but the compiler or IDE is something you have to download. Here is the link: www.arduino.cc/en/software Let me know if you have any other questions!!

@@Waiduino Thank you 😊

@@DanielMTB663 Yea of course! If you’re interested in other projects I would greatly appreciate it if you could check out some of my other videos since i’m really trying to grow my channel. Have you built any other projects?

@@Waiduino no this is my first project as I am trying to make an RC plane. I have subscribed to see more projects. (I am using the radar to ad to the plane)

@@DanielMTB663 Ohhhh that seems super interesting! Glad to see your working with the Arduino. Thank you for your support and if there’s any project ideas or assistance you need with the Arduino feel free to ask any questions!

You copied the code exactly, right? What pins is each individual LED connected to. Make sure they are securely in.

​@Waiduino yes I copied the code, but I think it is the wire, since it is kinda hard to follow since you don't show yourself connect the led but I will try again

@@Mertv123 Thank you for your feedback, I will try my best to improve that for my future videos. With the LED, do you know which wires to connect it to? Remember that the shorter part of the LED should touch the resistor and the other to the wire connecting to the pin on the Arduino.

@@Waiduino it works now thanks you so much

@@Mertv123 No problem!! I’m so happy that you were able to make it. Is it for a school project?

No give me your email address so I can send you an email

@@Waiduino boqo lol boqo no space for email

@@Waiduino I couldn't send the whole email since it didn't let me and no space and no numbers

@@Waiduino Did you find it?

Sure do you have an email or form of communication I can send the diagram to? Is it too confusing to follow with the physical components?

@@Waiduino I'm sorry, I am a 2nd year college taking electronics and this is one of my arduino projects. I am sorry if I am a slow learner, earlier I tried this and it works! Tysm for the vid.

@@user-xg3nn4jm3z Of course, no problem! I just want to know how I can improve my content for the future so that’s why I was wondering if it was too confusing. Next time I will be sure to add the diagram so that it is easier to follow along. Thank you for your comment and I hope you enjoyed the video! Are you interested in continuing to make projects with the Arduino?

@@Waiduino yes I am continuing for school projects. But discovering an arduino is too early for me. Maybe in the future if I am confident enough on this one. Tysm

@@user-xg3nn4jm3z Are you sure you don’t want to continue Arduino? I felt the same way when I started and that’s the reason I started this channel, to help others. There are wiring diagrams and in depth explanations on my other videos. Have you seen them?

Yea definitely! I have been working on a few but they take really long to finish them.

Also don’t forget to check out my other videos with cool projects and different Arduino modules!

Yea you could think about it like that. Did you get a a chance to make it?

@Waiduino yes long ago, btw . Motion sensing is different from distance sensing i think

@@naughtyboys2381 Thanks for pointing that out, your are correct. Thank you!

😂😂 Hi! Are you interested in Arduino

Oh I forgot to add that to my video 😅😅. Did you make the project?

I’m glad you enjoyed the video! I can help, what seems to be the issue?

@@Waiduino Heyy thank you! Do you have discord account?

@@Waiduino My group and I already have chosen things can you help us pls?

@@kabirrobloxPakistan hi I am so sorry you feel that way. Is there anything I can help with? I know it can be difficult to follow since this was one of my earlier videos but if you have any questions I can surely help!

Hi!!! Did you enjoy the video?

thanks! I’ll send an email when I get home

Thanks for your comment what did you find particularly confusing?

Thank you so much! I appreciate your input!! Do you use the Arduino often?

@@Waiduino yes sometimes

@@ih8snow415 Oh cool!! Are you new to Arduino and electronics?

Hi, how are you?
