Social Distancing Detector
This is a detector that can identify objects that entered the space around 2 meters.
The purpose of this detector is to keep the distance between people within "social distance". This project was inspired by this Arduino circuit, adding the functions to:
- Allow the Ultrasonic Sensor to move in a certain angle by placing it on a servomotor.
- Remind others to keep away using the LCD Display.
Supplies
The Materials needed for this project are:
Arduino Leonardo/Uno *1
Breadboard *1
HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Sensor *1
Buzzer *1
Green LEDs *2 (optional)
Red LEDs *2 (optional)
Yellow LEDs *2 (optional)
330-ohm Resistors *7
Jumper Wires (more than 20)
Wiring (LCD Display)
Prepare all the items mentioned above, look at the image to build the circuit.
For the LCD Display:
GND -> the "-" sign of the breadboard
VCC -> the "+" sign of the breadboard
SDA -> SDA on the Arduino board
SCL -> SCL on the Arduino Board
Wiring (wires Between the Breadboard & the Arduino Board)
GND on Arduino Board -> the "-" sign of the breadboard
5V on the Arduino Board -> the "+" of the breadboard
D2 -> A60
D3 -> J25
D6 -> E10
D7 -> E11
D8 -> J38
D9 -> J40
D10-> J43
D11 -> J45
D12 -> J48
D13 -> J50
Wiring (330-ohm Resistors)
Total of seven,
1. Connect between J51 -> negative sign straight down
2. Connect between J49 -> negative sign straight down
3. Connect between J46 -> negative sign straight down
4. Connect between J44 -> negative sign straight down
5. Connect between J41 -> negative sign straight down
6. Connect between J39 -> negative sign straight down
7. Connect between I24 -> negative sign straight down
Wiring (LEDs, Optional)
- The longer sides will align with the resistors, while the shorter side will be aligning the wires between the breadboard and the Arduino board. (e.g. Longer side -> F51; shorter side with the wire in J50)
- This is optional since there's already an LCD display to signify when the distance is violated.
Wiring (Buzzer)
Black sign align with the resistor at I24, red sign align with the wire connected to D3.
Wiring (Ultrasonic Sensor)
UCC -> A9
Trig -> A10
Echo -> A11
Gnd -> A1
A12 -> aligned + sign A9 -> aligned - sign
Wiring (wires Within the Breadboard)
A12 -> aligned + sign
A9 -> aligned - sign
The Code
Stick the Sensor on the Motor
Place It in a Box/Final Product
