Abstract
A microcontroller-based ultrasonic ranging system was developed and evaluated. A linear air track was used as a comparison to the distance measured by the system. Linear statistical analysis was used to compare the actual distance from the air track and the distance computed by the system. The temperature effect in the velocity of sound is not considered since the device was calibrated and evaluated in a temperature controlled environment. It was found out that the device is accurate, having an uncertainty value of ±0.005065 on conditions having an air temperature of 23°C.
