Homemade 360 degree Radar/Sonar with Arduino

Homemade Radar/Sonar with Arduino

In this video, I build Radar with Arduino Uno, Stepper motor and Sonar. The radar detects objects with sound reflection. By calculating the time between sound sent and received we can find out how far objects are.

Your brass rings are ferrules. Those in particular are copper tubing ferrules. There's all sorts. And I love the fact that you made a slip ring connector with them!!!

[Femtophysiker]

... you deserve a "like", good work.

[standard-carrier-wo-chan]

Seems like you can configure this to a Yagi antenna and make a proper early-WW2-esque radar

[chrisw]

Radar - acronym for _Radio_ Detection and Ranging. No radio. Not radar.

Man, YouTube is really great, that we have videos like this nowadays

Like before internet, if you want to learn how to make a radar?

[dmpyron]

Slip rings can be had for a few dollars from places like Adafruit or Digj Key.

[albertgupta]

appreciate your solution of using brass rings, but ball bearing could be a better solution

[greekghst]

Thank you. i tried and its working great. Im not "pro" and i have litle problem with the arial-black (font) but i found it. Thank you

[sigmahans]

Are you using a metal oder plastic model?

[wailtales]

the processing code only draws the circles but doesnt display the radar sweep any ideas

[DL-kcfc]

Nonsense. It's not synced either, and there was no model detection at all - the video was always deflected in that part.

[Miotenjoyer]

How do you make the connections to yhe rings????

[DroidzandBrix]

This is awesome. Now how would I go about using it to control a 1 watt laser? (to exterminate mosquitos)

[tomasgabrielvecchi]

hi, good video. I was asked to do a VOR anthena. They recomend something like this. So, is it possible to save on a variable the distance of the object detectes? so i can send it to an RF 433MHz. Thank you

[xcryeoy]

Is use to detect if one more going to hit the other tower

[titanlamtoan]

please help me. I do the same but when running it the scan is very slow and the display is not full. How do I let it scan quickly and display it all?

[NAIRops]

I would like to use this 360 degree project . The radar.rar is working but the screen only shows the top half of the display. yet the scan is doing the whole 360. Can anyone help? Thank you.

[ColinBoath]

All that techy wizardry and you make the body out of cardboard!!?😂

[NixDaEpunkt]

Why it does not detect the Laptop ? Is it a stealth Laptop ?
