Developing Sharp IR proximity sensor model in Simulink(R)

Modeling of a Sharp IR Sensor and implementation of a proximity detector on Arduino Mega

You are now following this Submission

This submission includes measurement data of the Sharp IR Sensor that is used in a number of steps (different models) to build a plant model of the sensor. The model includes noise, high and low frequency spikes and the nonlinear characteristics of the sensor.
The knowledge from building the plant model is then used to implement proximity detection in a model that can be run on an Arduino Mega.
A detailed description of the development is located on: (https://www.hackster.io/matlab-makers/ir-proximity-sensors-with-simulinkand-arduino-part-1-037f3a ).
