Modified Arduino Ping))) example to work with 4-Pin HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Sensor Distance Measuring Module

hc-sr04.ino

/* HC-SR04 Sensor
   https://www.dealextreme.com/p/hc-sr04-ultrasonic-sensor-distance-measuring-module-133696
  
   This sketch reads a HC-SR04 ultrasonic rangefinder and returns the
   distance to the closest object in range. To do this, it sends a pulse
   to the sensor to initiate a reading, then listens for a pulse 
   to return.  The length of the returning pulse is proportional to 
   the distance of the object from the sensor.
     
   The circuit:
	* VCC connection of the sensor attached to +5V
	* GND connection of the sensor attached to ground
	* TRIG connection of the sensor attached to digital pin 2
	* ECHO connection of the sensor attached to digital pin 4


   Original code for Ping))) example was created by David A. Mellis
   Adapted for HC-SR04 by Tautvidas Sipavicius

   This example code is in the public domain.
 */


const int trigPin = 2;
const int echoPin = 4;

void setup() {
  // initialize serial communication:
  Serial.begin(9600);
}

void loop()
{
  // establish variables for duration of the ping, 
  // and the distance result in inches and centimeters:
  long duration, inches, cm;

  // The sensor is triggered by a HIGH pulse of 10 or more microseconds.
  // Give a short LOW pulse beforehand to ensure a clean HIGH pulse:
  pinMode(trigPin, OUTPUT);
  digitalWrite(trigPin, LOW);
  delayMicroseconds(2);
  digitalWrite(trigPin, HIGH);
  delayMicroseconds(10);
  digitalWrite(trigPin, LOW);

  // Read the signal from the sensor: a HIGH pulse whose
  // duration is the time (in microseconds) from the sending
  // of the ping to the reception of its echo off of an object.
  pinMode(echoPin, INPUT);
  duration = pulseIn(echoPin, HIGH);

  // convert the time into a distance
  inches = microsecondsToInches(duration);
  cm = microsecondsToCentimeters(duration);
  
  Serial.print(inches);
  Serial.print("in, ");
  Serial.print(cm);
  Serial.print("cm");
  Serial.println();
  
  delay(100);
}

long microsecondsToInches(long microseconds)
{
  // According to Parallax's datasheet for the PING))), there are
  // 73.746 microseconds per inch (i.e. sound travels at 1130 feet per
  // second).  This gives the distance travelled by the ping, outbound
  // and return, so we divide by 2 to get the distance of the obstacle.
  // See: http://www.parallax.com/dl/docs/prod/acc/28015-PING-v1.3.pdf
  return microseconds / 74 / 2;
}

long microsecondsToCentimeters(long microseconds)
{
  // The speed of sound is 340 m/s or 29 microseconds per centimeter.
  // The ping travels out and back, so to find the distance of the
  // object we take half of the distance travelled.
  return microseconds / 29 / 2;
}

Nice Job! Thanks

Awsome work! Thanks

How can both codes be joined?

/* This example uses the accelerometer in the Zumo Shield's onboard LSM303DLHC with the LSM303 Library to

• detect contact with an adversary robot in the sumo ring. The LSM303 Library is not included in the Zumo
• Shield libraries; it can be downloaded separately from GitHub at:
• https://github.com/pololu/LSM303
• This example extends the BorderDetect example, which makes use of the onboard Zumo Reflectance Sensor Array
• and its associated library to detect the border of the sumo ring. It also illustrates the use of the
• ZumoMotors, PushButton, and ZumoBuzzer libraries.
• In loop(), the program reads the x and y components of acceleration (ignoring z), and detects a
• contact when the magnitude of the 3-period average of the x-y vector exceeds an empirically determined
• XY_ACCELERATION_THRESHOLD. On contact detection, the forward speed is increased to FULL_SPEED from
• the default SEARCH_SPEED, simulating a "fight or flight" response.
• The program attempts to detect contact only when the Zumo is going straight. When it is executing a
• turn at the sumo ring border, the turn itself generates an acceleration in the x-y plane, so the
• acceleration reading at that time is difficult to interpret for contact detection. Since the Zumo also
• accelerates forward out of a turn, the acceleration readings are also ignored for MIN_DELAY_AFTER_TURN
• milliseconds after completing a turn. To further avoid false positives, a MIN_DELAY_BETWEEN_CONTACTS is
• also specified.
• This example also contains the following enhancements:
• • uses the Zumo Buzzer library to play a sound effect ("charge" melody) at start of competition and
• whenever contact is made with an opposing robot
• • randomizes the turn angle on border detection, so that the Zumo executes a more effective search pattern
• • supports a FULL_SPEED_DURATION_LIMIT, allowing the robot to switch to a SUSTAINED_SPEED after a short
• period of forward movement at FULL_SPEED. In the example, both speeds are set to 400 (max), but this
• feature may be useful to prevent runoffs at the turns if the sumo ring surface is unusually smooth.
• • logging of accelerometer output to the serial monitor when LOG_SERIAL is #defined.
• This example also makes use of the public domain RunningAverage library from the Arduino website; the relevant
• code has been copied into this .ino file and does not need to be downloaded separately.
