RADAR

Using Arduino

A hands-on radar project that demonstrates object detection, servo motor rotation, 360-degree scanning and visual display.

Classes 9th to 10th
RADAR robotics project

RADAR

The RADAR project uses Arduino, an ultrasonic sensor and a servo motor to scan the surrounding area and detect objects.

Students can observe detected objects through a visual radar-style display while learning how sensors, motors and microcontrollers work together.

What the System Does

◎

Object Detection

Detects objects using an ultrasonic sensor.

↻

Servo Motor Rotation

Rotates the sensor to scan different directions.

◉

360° Scanning

Demonstrates scanning across a wide field of view.

▣

Visual Display

Presents detected information in a radar-style interface.

How It Works

01
◉

Measure

The sensor measures the distance to objects.

02
↻

Rotate

The servo motor changes the sensor direction.

03
⚙

Process

Arduino processes the sensor readings.

04
▣

Display

The detected information is shown visually.
