Ultrasonic Distance Sensor for Bit:Bot Classic

Ultrasonic Distance Sensor for Bit:Bot Classic

NB. Bit:Bot not included

Ready-Soldered, just attach to your Bit:Bot Classic with the screws provided and off you go.

* Not suitable for BitBot XL, use the Ultrasonic Breakout instead

Use Microsoft Makecode or MicroPython to read the distance to an obstacle, then program your Bit:Bot to avoid it.

Both Ping and Echo signals are on the same pin (Pin 15)

This accessory is now only available in 1 flavour: With the ultrasonic sensor soldered directly to the PCB

The sensor soldered into the PCB is much more robust and reliable, but has a drawback in that you cannot access the micro-USB connector on the micro:bit unless you either remove the micro:bit or use a right-angled USB cable.

Consider using the right-angled USB cable or the AngleBit with this option

NB. The socketed version allows most USB leads to access the micro:bit, but it isn't robust. We no longer sell this version.
