Performance Comparison of Ultrasonic Sensor Accuracy in Measuring Distance

Abstract

Digital technology is now very sophisticated. Its use is widely applied in all areas of human life. Starting from waking up, human activities and others always use technology. In carrying out their activities, modern humans now almost all use vehicles as a mode of transportation. Today's vehicles use a variety of sensors as a sixth sense. The results of detection using sensors on the vehicle are usually displayed on the dashboard of the vehicle. Modern humans currently use sensors to complete their needs. Besides that, the internet of things technology is growing rapidly in its role and development to support the needs of modern humans. Micro-controller technology is also experiencing rapid and massive development. One of the most common and most popularly used microcontrollers is Arduino. In many streets in Indonesia, people still use vehicles not equipped with many sensors. One of them is a simple parking sensor that many old vehicles don't have. Parking sensor problems are needed at the time of parking so that the vehicle that will be parked does not hit other objects or vehicles. There are many types of ultrasonic sensors. The purpose of this research is to make a prototype ultrasonic sensor that is applied to vehicles and compare some of the most accurate ultrasonic sensors in measuring the distance between the vehicle and the object being measured.
