Ultrasonic HC-SR04P Using Raspberry Pi Pico

Introduction

This time we will program an ultrasonic sensor with Maker Pi Pico using MicroPython. An ultrasonic sensor is used to measure the distance of a target object by emitting ultrasonic sound waves. It then converts the reflected sound into an electrical signal. The ultrasonic frequency is higher than the audible sound frequency.
