Radar Emulator with Arduino + Python

In this tutorial, an ultrasonic sensor (HC-SR04) will be used in place of a radio emitter; and a plan position indicator will be constructed in Python by recording the angular movements of a servo motor. An Arduino board will both record the ranging data from the ultrasonic sensor while also controlling and outputting the angular position of the servo motor. This will permit the creation of a PPI for visualizing the position of various objects surrounding the radar system.

Arduino Servo Motor Basics and Control

In this tutorial, an Arduino board will be used to power and control a small servo motor. The basics and composition of an SG90 will be explored, and the application of several servo codes and applications will be given for another type of servo motor, the MG90S. The goal of this project is to introduce users into the workings of a servo motor, how PWM (pulse-width modulation) controls a servo motor, and how Arduino can interface with servo motors to produce desired movements to great precision.
