Great for learning sensors
As a beginner, I found this very easy to integrate. There are tons of tutorials online. It helped me understand how time-of-flight measurement works.

Solid performance for the cost
Not industrial grade, but perfect for hobbyist prototypes. The beam angle is reasonable, and it handles ambient noise well indoors.

Perfect for Arduino robotics projects
This sensor works flawlessly with my Arduino Uno. The distance readings are consistent and accurate within the specified range. Great value for the price.

Good accuracy, easy to wire
Used this for a university project. Wiring is straightforward, and the library support is excellent. Only minor issue is sensitivity to soft surfaces, but that's expected with ultrasonic tech.

Reliable and cheap
Bought five of these for a parking assist system. All of them worked out of the box. The response time is fast enough for real-time applications.

Exceeded expectations
I was skeptical about the low price, but this module is robust. I've been using it in an obstacle-avoidance robot for weeks without any failures.
Q: How do I calculate distance from the pulse duration?
A: Distance (cm) = (Duration in microseconds / 2) / 29.1. We divide by 2 because the sound wave travels to the object and back.
Q: What is the minimum detection distance?
A: The minimum measurable distance is approximately 2cm. Objects closer than this may not be detected accurately due to the ringing effect of the transducer.
Q: Does this come with jumper wires?
A: No, the package includes only the HC-SR04 module itself. Jumper wires are sold separately.
Q: Is it waterproof for outdoor use?
A: No, the standard HC-SR04 is not waterproof. For outdoor or wet environments, please look for the waterproof version with a sealed casing.
Q: Can this sensor work with 3.3V logic boards like ESP32?
A: Yes, but you may need a voltage divider or level shifter for the Echo pin since it outputs 5V. The VCC must remain at 5V for stable operation.
