Radar, short for Radio Detection and Ranging, is a system that utilizes radio waves to determine various characteristics of objects in its vicinity. This powerful technology enables us to measure the distance, direction, and radial velocity of objects relative to its location. Radar has found numerous applications in various domains, including aviation, maritime, space exploration, defence, meteorology, and mapping. In this paper, we explore a novel approach to radar systems by integrating Arduino technology and ultrasonic sensors. Unlike traditional radar systems that solely rely on waves, this setup introduces the use of ultrasonic signals, resulting in a significant change. The setup includes an Arduino board that is connected to a servo motor responsible for moving a sensor. This sensor detects and measures objects within a specific range. To simplify the programming process for the Arduino board, we utilize the Arduino IDE, while the Processing IDE enhances visualization through a user interface. By combining both hardware and software in this innovative manner, the radar system successfully achieves object detection and visualization, opening up possibilities for various applications such as security, navigation, and more.
