Peguino Proximity Brick

This unit houses and delivers a proximity brick which measures distance with ultrasonic Doppler Effect waves enabling your self driving robot to avoid walls.




Examples for Peguino Uno Nano and ESP32 V1:

Connect the Proximity Brick to the Peguino Uno Brick Port A. Copy and paste the code below into the Arduino IDE and upload it to the Peguino Uno Brick board.
