Shipped this project!
Finally I got to shipping my project! I spent a while on making a little video to showcase it and posted it to youtube so i could link it to the demo button.
Anyway what i made here is a Radar thing that works with an ultrasonic sensor which detects anything infront of it and then the servo turns a step where the sensor can again detect anything. it sends the data then to a program in processing which then draws it pretty much. the red parts are then the spots where it detects something and the green is nothing.
I created my own tower to put everything in so it kinda looks like a watch tower.
the tower is split into 3 parts. the bottom and middle attach via one magnet on each side and some guiding pin. the top part which has the sensor in it attaches to the servo. That was difficult to strongly attach since it was always wobbly. In my last design which was best i added two holes to sink some inserts into and then i used one attachment that came with the servo and screwed that in. so now it was attached with 3 screws and is much stronger, although it is still a bit wobbly.
Most proud i am about the 3d model, since i think it looks very cool, but also everything in general, since i had never thought i could manage to build this even with a little help from my brother (troubleshooting).
Anyway i hope you enjoy my project and give it a good review!
