I recently bought a new car and it's a VERY tight squeeze fitting it into my garage!! I always have to park it VERY close to a shelving unit at the back of the garage in order to still be able to close the garage door.
As such, I wanted to build something that could show me a very clear display of how close my car was to the shelves. I then found I could buy an UltraSonic distance sensor and a small LED dot matrix display that could be driven from the Raspberry PI.
In this video, I take you through how to set all of this up so that you can know EXACTLY how far your car is away from objects YOU want to AVOID!!
Links to things you see in the video (shop around!! These are just what I used!!):
