Sonar Sensors

- Can detect objects at a distance between 2 cm and 3m away from the sensor

- Can use several of these to control various pumps or valves in the system

Milestone #1 Goals

• Have one pump and one sonar being controlled with simple inputs from Demo Board– Software is ready for the pump and the sonar – One pump responding to Winamp plug-in

• First revision of PCB complete, populated, and tested for functionality

Milestone #2 Goals

• Water fountain controlled by Winamp plug-in and sonars through circuitry on PCB.– All pumps respond to sonar and Winamp input

• Water fountain structure complete and inside a completed plexiglass containment
