Ultrasonic is a low cost sensor. it is used for distance measurement. Its working principle is similar to that of SONAR(Sound Navigation and Ranging). The sensor provides precise,Stable non-contact distance measurements from about 2cm to 4 meters with very high accuracy. It can be used for level detection, speed and relative distances, burglar alarms etc.
