Circuit Documentation
Summary
This circuit integrates various components controlled by an Arduino UNO microcontroller to perform a range of functions. The circuit includes ultrasonic sensors (HC-SR04) for distance measurement, an I2C LCD screen for data display, a pushbutton for user input, a DC motor driver (L298N) to control gearmotors, a 4x4 membrane matrix keypad for additional input, a buzzer for audio feedback, and a 12V battery for power supply. The Arduino UNO serves as the central processing unit, interfacing with the sensors, actuators, and display, and managing the overall operation of the circuit.
