Due to the ultrasonic sensor has a resolution of about 0.3 cm it is sufficient to configure the resolution to 800 ns. The maximum values to measure (18 meters) are more than enough for the maximum of 3 meters the sensor will return. | Due to the ultrasonic sensor has a resolution of about 0.3 cm it is sufficient to configure the resolution to 800 ns.
