INTRODUCTION
• What is a Radar System?
• Radar (Radio Detection and Ranging) is a system that uses electromagnetic waves to detect
objects, measure their distance, and track their movement.
• It operates by sending out radio or microwave signals and then analyzing the reflections (or
echoes) of these signals as they bounce off objects.Radar systems are widely used in aviation,
weather forecasting, military, and autonomous vehicles.
• Radar with Arduino
• The Arduino Uno is a microcontroller board that can be used to control sensors and other
electronic components.
• By combining Arduino with an ultrasonic sensor, servo motors, and simple programming, we
can create a basic radar system.
• Purpose of the Project
• The goal of this project is to build a simple radar system using an Arduino Uno.
• This system will detect objects in its range by measuring the distance and display the results
in real-time.
• We’ll demonstrate how an ultrasonic sensor, combined with a servo motor, can simulate a
radar scanning process, offering a hands-on introduction to how radar systems function
at a basic level.

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM
WORKING PRINCIPLE
• A radar system using an Arduino Uno, an ultrasonic
sensor and a servo motor works by scanning an area,
detecting obstacles, and displaying the results in real
time. The system mimics a basic radar by measuring
distances and plotting them on a display.
APPLICATIONS
• Object detection and avoidance
• Surveillance and security systems
• Robotics and automation
• Obstacle detection in self-driving vehicles
CODE USED
CONCLUSION
• The Arduino-based radar system effectively detects and
measures object distances using an ultrasonic sensor and a servo
motor. It mimics real radar technology by scanning the
surroundings and displaying real-time data. This project
demonstrates practical applications in robotics, automation, and
security, with potential for further enhancements using advanced
sensors and wireless communication.
