Overview
A radar-style object detection system using an ultrasonic sensor mounted on a servo motor. It scans 180° and visualizes object detection in real time.
Problem
Need to detect object position and distance in real-time with angular positioning for comprehensive spatial awareness.
Solution
Built a servo-based ultrasonic system that scans surroundings 180°, calculates object distance and position, and visualizes data similar to radar displays.
