    INTRODUCTION

    An HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor distance threshold dependent 5V SPDT relay using an Arduino
    UNO is a system that uses an ultrasonic sensor (HC-SR04) to measure the distance of an object
    in front of it and a 5V Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) relay to control an external device (here
    LEDs) based on that distance. The threshold distance is set in cm and can be adjusted as desired.

    The ultrasonic sensor sends out a sound wave and measures the time it takes for the sound wave
    to bounce back to the sensor to calculate the distance of the object. The Arduino UNO is used as
    a microcontroller to read the distance from the ultrasonic sensor and control the SPDT relay
    based on the distance.

    1.PROBLEM STATEMENT: Write a program to turn ON (and remain ON for 10 secs) and
    then turn OFF specified Relay LEDs as per the following conditions:
    0< Distance from sensor <= 10 cm = LED1 is actuated
    10< Distance from sensor <=20 cm = LED2 is actuated
    20< Distance from sensor <=30 cm = LED3 is actuated
    30< Distance from sensor <=40 cm = LED4 is actuated

    CODE
    const int relayPins[ ]={2,3,4,5};
    const int trigPin=6;
    const int echoPin=7;
    int distance;
    long duration;
    void setup() {
    // put your setup code here, to run once:
    Serial.begin(9600);
    for (int i=0; i < 4; i++)
    { pinMode (relayPins[i],
    OUTPUT);
    digitalWrite(relayPins[i], HIGH);
    }
    pinMode (trigPin, OUTPUT);
    pinMode (echoPin, INPUT);
    }

    void loop() {
    // put your main code here, to run repeatedly:

    digitalWrite(trigPin,LOW);

    delayMicroseconds (2);
    digitalWrite(trigPin,HIGH);
    delayMicroseconds(10);
    digitalWrite(trigPin, LOW);
    duration=pulseIn(echoPin,HIGH);
    distance=duration*0.034 / 2;
    Serial.print("Distance: ");
    Serial.print(distance);
    Serial.println("cm");

    distance<=10){digitalWrite(rela
    yPins[0], LOW); delay(1000);

    FOLLOW -UP QUESTION:
    Update the code as follows:
    0< Distance from sensor <= 10 cm = LED3 is actuated
    10< Distance from sensor <=20 cm = LED1 is actuated
    20< Distance from sensor <=30 cm = LED4 is actuated
    30< Distance from sensor <=40 cm = LED2 is actuated

    CONCLUSION.
    By performing this experiment, we learnt about the interfacing of
    an analog sensor (Ultrasonic Sensor) with the Arduino and further
    to digitally control any externally attached equipment via relay
    switches using the same sensor.
