Hey everyone I made this ultrasonic range finder backup sensor to enter a contest for an iPad.

It gives you the distance to an object in feet then inches

Shows your position on a little graph

Has Green, Yellow, and Red color zone indicators

And alerts you with annoying high pitched tones!

 

Check it out and Like it on youtube  to help me win!

Thanks guys

               ...but be nice I'm a newbie and was rushing to get this done in two days for the contest deadline!
