Automatic Door +

OVERVIEW

In this project we will make Automatic Door using Arduino Uno, Ultrasonic Sensor and a Servo Motor, we will detect ultrasonic waves to detect if anyone is ahead and use the Servo Motor to open and shut the door.

You can follow this video and the instructions below to make this Amazing Automatic Door Project.

// Automatic Door by --- AceLabs ---

#include <Servo.h>   //servo library
 Servo servo;     
 int trigPin = 5;    
 int echoPin = 6;   
 int servoPin = 7;
 int led= 10;
 long duration, dist, average;   
 long aver[3];   //array for average


void setup() {       
    Serial.begin(9600);
    servo.attach(servoPin);  
    pinMode(trigPin, OUTPUT);  
    pinMode(echoPin, INPUT);  
    servo.write(0);         //close door on power on
    delay(100);
    servo.detach(); 
} 

void measure() {  
   digitalWrite(10,HIGH);
   digitalWrite(trigPin, LOW);
   delayMicroseconds(5);
   digitalWrite(trigPin, HIGH);
   delayMicroseconds(15);
   digitalWrite(trigPin, LOW);
   pinMode(echoPin, INPUT);

   duration = pulseIn(echoPin, HIGH);
   dist = (duration/2) / 29.1;    //obtain distance
}

void loop() { 
    for (int i=0;i<=2;i++) {   //average distance
    measure();               
    aver[i]=dist;            
    delay(10);              //delay between measurements
  } 

 dist=(aver[0]+aver[1]+aver[2])/3;    

if ( dist<20 ) {
                            //Change distance as per your need
   servo.attach(servoPin);
   delay(1);
   servo.write(0);  
   delay(3000);       
   servo.write(150);    
   delay(1000);
   servo.detach();      
}
Serial.print(dist);
}
