An ultrasonic bat detector with only 3 components !
Contents |
Let me introduce PicoBat to you with this short video clip :
The idea of this circuit is to hack PIC oscillator circuit, by replacing the crystal by a piezo sensor : the frequency of the oscillator will depend on presence ultrasonic waves.
Oscillator frequency is then divided and pushed to a piezo speaker.
It shares the same idea as PicoDetector, the metal detector.
