A simple projects demonstrating use of Ultrasonic sensor to measure distance. This project make use of PIC microcontroller and 40Khz ultrasonic transducers pair for measuring distance from obstacle and displaying it on 7-Segment LED display.
The working of project is based on the simple phenomenon of sound traveling. The time from transmission of the pulse to reception of the echo is the time taken for the sound energy to travel through the air to the object and back again.
Since the speed of sound is constant through air measuring the echo reflection time lets you calculate the distance to the object using the DST equation :
Distance = (s * t)/2 (in metres)
You need to divide by 2 as the distance is the round trip distance i.e. from transmitter to object and back again.
The 40Khz signal is generated form controller itself and given to ultrasonic transmitter via amplifier circuit. Receiver part includes preamplifier, peak detector and threshold circuit.

i am doing a countdown timer with 8051 for my project, unfortunately our professor had to take a leave of absence before he could teach us most of it.. can someone explain the .asm code of it for me?

I am doing a project for my schools wireless security system with cameras,sensors and spot lights using 8051 micro controller, could you help me out with the design and its source code.

hello! newbie here. i am kind of a guy who hates using ready - made existing libraries, so this helped a lot as i was trying to control and write to a character lcd display. however, i can't figure out how to set the cursor position. for example, i want to set it to the 5th column in the first row, so position 5. so according to the table, i am sending 10000101 on the 8 data lines of the lcd (register select pulled low). the cursor does not move there however. and i cant move the cursor left or right too. is it something wrong that i am doing? thank you.
