This is a blog mostly about techie things, what I am doing to my apartment network on the cheap, IOT, 3D Printing, Raspberry Pis, Arduinos, ESP32, ESP8266, Home Automation, Personal Weather Stations, Things That Go Bump in the Night, and some side issues that need discussing. Remember, sometimes the journey to an end is as much fun as the goal achieved!

Located a library to use with HC-SR04
I was doing a search this morning and happened upon the site at http://code.google.com/p/arduino-new-ping/. This appears to be a library with the ability to filter the HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor. It also appears that the author had many of the same problems that I encountered with the sensor and dealt with it with multiple pings, distance sensing, etc. I will need some time to digest what it is capable of doing but maybe this is a better bet for a more stable read from the sensor.
