Track Seed Dispersal Distance with Arduino Ultrasonic Kit – STEM Aerodynamics Project

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

Turn a biology concept into a hands-on engineering investigation. Using dual HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensors and Arduino Uno, you’ll build a system that captures the exact landing point of tossed seeds, logs timestamps and distances to MicroSD, and displays results on an LCD—ideal for testing how wing shape alters dispersal range, just like CBSE Class 12 investigatory projects or a Smart India Hackathon prototype.

What You'll Build

A compact, battery-powered data logger that tracks seed flight distance in real time. You’ll calibrate two ultrasonic sensors to detect the landing spot, record each throw on a MicroSD card with precise time from the DS3231 RTC, and read instant feedback on the 16x2 LCD. Compare samara, winged, and plain seeds to draw aerodynamics conclusions.

What You'll Learn

• Transmit and receive ultrasonic pulses with HC-SR04 sensors to measure range
• Interface a DS3231 real-time clock to timestamp every seed landing
• Log distance and time data onto a MicroSD card using Arduino’s SPI library
• Display real-time results on a 16x2 LCD via an I2C backpack

Why Buy This Kit Instead of Sourcing Parts Separately

Who This Kit Is For

CBSE/ICSE students conducting seed dispersal investigatory projects, first-year B.Tech ECE/EEE students building a sensor-based data logger, and ATL Tinkering Lab mentors guiding aerodynamics experiments. It aligns with NEP 2020 maker goals and fits science fairs, Inspire Awards, or college mini-project submissions.

Built and Backed by Compoden

Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
