Ultrasonic Distance Measurement with the MSP430 (PDF) - This application report describes a distance-measuring system based on ultrasonic sound utilizing the MSP430F413 ultralow-power microcontroller. The system transmits a burst of ultrasonic sound waves towards the subject and then receives the corresponding echo. The MSP430 integrated analog comparator Comparator_A is used to detect the arrival of the echo to the system __ Designed by TI Application Report SLAA136A - October 2001

Ultrasonic Distant Obstacle Detector - The first sensor a robot usually gets fitted with is an obstacle detector. it may take three different forms, depending on the type of obstacle you want to detect and also — indeed, above all — on the distance at which you want detection to take place.

Ultrasonic Dog Whistle - it's well known that many animals are particularly sensitive to high-frequency sounds that humans can't hear. Many commercial pest repellers based on this principle are available, most of them operating in the range of 30 to 50 kHz. __ Designed by Tomaz Lazar-Ljubljana, Slovenia
Ultrasonic Intruder Detector - The next circuit is an ultrasonic intruder detector. it uses Doppler shift from a moving object. Ultrasonics aren't used much for this commercially as they can be a bit temperamental to set up and tend to detect cats and curtains moving in a draft. Modern detectors tend to use a narrow beam microwave system which only scans a small area such as a doorway. Ultrasonics tend to scan the whole room. __ Designed by Richard Torrens
Ultrasonic ParKontroller - Are you afraid that your brand new Hummer is going to get scratched while parking it in a tight space?

Ultrasonic Pest Repellent - it is well know that pests like rats, mice etc are repelled by ultrasonic frequency in the range of 30 kHz to 50 kHz. Human beings can’t hear these high-frequency sounds. Unfortunately, all pests do not react at the same ultrasonic frequency. While some pests get repelled at 35 kHz, some others get repelled at 38 to 40 kHz. Thus to increase the effectiveness, __

Ultrasonic Range Finder - The circuit is designed to be low cost. it uses a PIC 12C508 to perform the control functions and standard 40khz piezo transducers. The drive to the transmitting transducer could be simplest driven directly from the PIC . The 5v drive can give a useful range for large objects, but can be problematic detecting smaller objects. The transducer can handle 20v of drive, so I decided to get up close to this level. A MAX232 IC , usually used for RS232 communication makes and ideal driver, providing about 16v of drive. __ Designed by Gerald Coe

Ultrasonic Reflectance Detector - This circuit detects motion within approximately 5 inches of a piezo-ceramic element ultrasonic transducer. The detection distance is much smaller than obtainable with other ultrasonic techniques, however, it only requires a single transducer, as opposed to the two-transducer arrangement typically found in other designs. The short-range detection is adequate for many applications, such as proximity-operated commodity dispensers or tamper alarms for merchandise cases. __ Designed by Arthur Harrison
Ultrasonic Remote Control and Intruder Detector - This transmitter is designed to work with the next circuit as a remote control transmitter/receiver. it is only a single channel and you could once get multi-channel chips for the whole job.
