Oak: using an Ultrasonic Sensor

Currently a Work in Progress


{{http://digistump.com/wiki/_media/oak/tutorials/us-100_ultrasonic_2.png?400]]

In this lesson, we will connect an ultrasonic sensor to the Oak. An ultrasonic sensor allows you to detect

Components

Part Quantity Identification
Oak with soldered headers 1
Breadboard1
Ultrasonic Sensor1
Jumper wires6

Note: The HC-SR04 sensor is NOT being used in this tutorial as it uses 5v. Instead a US-100 sensor, which operates with 3.3v is used.

Particle.publish will be used to send the sensor data to the cloud. To view the data, you will need a free Particle account, which you can get here if you done have one already: https://build.particle.io/signup.
