Abstract
A short distance ultrasonic distance meter is disclosed with provisions to reduce the ill-effects of ringing when measurements are of obstacles closer than about ten inches. In one embodiment an opposite phase ultrasonic wave is introduced by a circuit (245) and in another embodiment a strain sensor (232) introduces negative feedback to effect cancellation of ringing (147). Finally, in a third embodiment, both the negative feedback and opposite phase methods are employed for optimal results.
