They rebuild one of the most iconic components for an electronics tinkering beginner — an ultrasonic distance sensor, and what’s fun is, it stays fully functional after the rebuild!

TI’s integrated circuits and reference designs help you create humanoid robot sensor modules and interfacing for radar, LIDAR, ultrasonic proximity or cameras. Functional safety considerations.

The next set of parts you need to build your robot is sensors. Some are cheap and easily available, such as microphones, contact switches or LDRs, while others such as ultrasonic distance sensors ...
