Ultrasonic Radar

Works with an ultrasonic sensor, Arduino and servo. Visualized in processing

This project uses AI

Used Chatgpt for the base code since ive only been learning coding for 2 months or so :)))

I’m not even sure how i collected this much time! Did a lot of short period work, always a couple minutes here and there working on code, but mainly on setting up my new github page. Theres only so much i can do away from home unfortunatly. Once i get back home ill hopefully have the 3d file finished and printed and then can go into testing. Then i can hopefully record and ship my project so that it can be voted on (positivly of cours :D ).

I used lapse to record time in fusion. So now I could track my time. I started the model but not done yet. Unfortunately at one point I logged the time wrong so I lost some, but I got it all fixed.

Can’t really upload a photo. Away from home and only have phone and laptop.

Finally. I got autodesk to work. Thanks to Obay on Flavortown-help who recommended lapse to me. I can use lapse in order to screen record my activity and then log it which worked. Hopefully it also stays and doesn’t get removed for some reason. With lapse i started 3d modelling for the tower. Before i also finished the processing code (as far as i know) so all i need to do is finish 3d modelling and set everything up. hopefully i can then finish next week and then begin my next project.

I started now with the processing code. I am using VS code for it because i couldnt get the wakatime extension to work on processing, which means i always have to copy it over to check out the design. that also takes time which unfortunately inst tracked. But i guess thats my bad cause i cant figure out this stuff. I’ve also kept trying to be able to track autodesk fusion but nothing works so i might have to use screen recording once i start.

Mainly i am still working on finding out how to track time for autodesk fusion, and now also processing which is what i will use for visualizing my radar. unfortunately i also don’t know how to use processing yet since it uses java. i continued tweaking my code for the Arduino and hopefully i get my parts on Wednesday so i can test it out. I also started writing my Text for the end of the project on how i built it but of course i cant write all of it yet cause I’m not even close to done yet. I also tried downloading the Hackatime desktop software cause maybe that’s easier to track time, but the download website is down, and the only other way is to build it from source and i have no clue how to do that.

continued coding, but couldn’t solve the library problem yet. Also tried setting up the tracking for autodesk fusion but nothing yet of course. spent a lot of time with that but its not logged with so that sucks

I’m currently writing the base script while learning how to because this is my first time making a project! My basic c++ knowledge from school helps a little but I still need help.
I have a problem with the Servo library which isn’t working in VS code so I need to find a solution for that, maybe someone can help me there.
My Brother should have the needed components, however I still need to design a case/tower for it. I hope i can vlog the time it takes to do the 3d modeling to.

I’m working on my first project! I researched a little on the parts I need and how I want to make it. I’ll also need to design a 3d model for the radar to sit.
