An Ultrasonic Range Finder is a device that measures distance by using sound waves. It emits ultrasonic waves, which are high-frequency sound waves beyond the range of human hearing. When these waves hit an object, they bounce back to the device, allowing it to calculate the distance based on the time it takes for the waves to return. These range finders are commonly used in various applications, including robotics, automotive systems, and industrial automation. They are valued for their accuracy and ability to work in different environments, making them a popular choice for measuring distances in real-time without physical contact with the target object.
