Arduino’s analog pin for reading vapor
concentration.
• Calibration: Essential for accurate
readings; influenced by environmental
factors.
Utilizing MQ-2 Gas
Sensor
• Sensor Capabilities: Detects smoke
and various combustible gases.
• Connection Guide: Hooks up to an
analog pin to measure gas levels.
• Calibration and Safety: Regular
calibration needed for accurate
detection; critical for safety
applications like gas leak alarms.
Implementing
Ultrasonic Sensors
• Working Principle: Measures distance
by sending and receiving ultrasonic
waves.
• Connection Setup: Uses two digital
pins (trigger and echo).
