Title: Assessment of Accuracy in Measuring Distance with Ultrasound †
Keywords: accuracy assessment, distance, measurement system, monitoring, multiple measurements, ultrasound

Abstract: Many measurements are performed using ultrasound in technology. The main advantage of this measurement method is the lack of contact between the measuring element and the object being measured. An application based on the Arduino platform is presented, created for measuring distances with ultrasound. The assessment of the measurement accuracy and the sensitivity of the measuring elements to different types of surfaces will be presented. The compilation of measurement systems and the mathematical processing of the results obtained from repeated measurements will assist students in the learning process in various engineering disciplines related to the measurement of non-electrical quantities and the creation of various systems for automatic control of measurement systems.
