Ultrasonic Distance Sensor for Robo:Bit (RoboBit)
by 4Tronixs
$8.95
NB. Robo:Bit not included
Ready-Soldered, just attach to your Robo:Bit using the 2 screws for the front caster and off you go.
Use Microsoft PXT (or MicroPython with some awkward code) to read the distance to an obstacle, then program your Bit:Bot to avoid it.
Both Ping and Echo signals are on the same pin (Pin 13) (NB. this is a different pin to Bit:Bot)
This module should be screwed tightly to the front of the Robo:Bit ensuring the little solder pips on the underneath make good contact with the pads of the Robo:Bit. See attached photos.
