Which sensor is commonly used in robots for detecting obstacles using sound waves?
- LIDAR
- Ultrasonic Sensor
- Infrared Sensor
- Camera
Answer: Ultrasonic Sensor
Ultrasonic sensors emit high-frequency sound waves and measure echo return time to calculate distance. Cost-effective for short-range obstacle detection in mobile robots, parking systems, and industrial automation. LIDAR uses laser for high-precision mapping; IR for proximity; cameras for visual recognition. Important for robotics fundamentals.
