Perancangan dan Pengukuran Topi COVID-19 Reminder dengan Sensor Ultrasonik HC-SR04

The development of ultrasonic sensor technology used for suitable equipment is widely carried out, such as distance sticks for the blind, floor cleaning robots, automatic garbage boxes, height measuring instruments, water volume detectors, automatic dispensers, automatic hand sanitisers, etc. During the COVID-19 pandemic, a product that can be used to limit the distance between humans is needed, so this research is focused on products for measuring distances with ultrasonic sensors. The research design method used is research and development, using the Borg and Gall approach, with step information collecting, planning, development, testing, final product and implementation. The results of this research product are designed using Arduino nano v3 hardware, battery, buzzer, and ultrasonic sensor HC-SR04. Product design was registered with Industrial Design Intellectual Property Rights with registration number A00202102408. The results of measuring the quality of the ultrasonic sensor for measuring distances on flat objects show an average error percentage of 2.94% from 10 cm to 300 cm with a distance range of 10 cm. Tests on obstacle objects (humans) at an angle of zero degrees and 15 degrees showed the best farthest measuring distance at a distance of 150 cm. So 150 cm is the best distance to apply to the hat COVID-19 reminder. The development results show that the product is ready to continue in production and sales.
