About Sonar Distance Meter
Sonar Distance Meter measures and visualizes the distances of nearby objects by generating sound waves and interpreting their echoes.
Features
* Free distance meter
* Measures the distances of nearby objects in realtime
* Visualizes the results as a diagram
Instructions
1. Tap to start scanning
2. Move the device back and forth to identify the target's sonar echo
3. If necessary, move the device sidewards to escape interferences
4. Place the device at the desired position
5. Optionally, tap to hold results
6. Read measured distances
* Try both microphones via the settings menu
* Try different volume levels
* Don't cover the speaker or microphone
* For a first test, hold the device at about 1m distance in front of a wall

App opens and graph looks to be populating without me trying to start the measurement. No numerical values on graph to indicate where the distances are calculated.

Makes an amazingly annoying sound. Graph works okay but holding it in every imaginable position yelded a distance of 0 meters

Kind of works. Gives an A display. Very poor signal to noise ratio. SNR. Perhaps would work with an external and separate speaker and microphone. Suggestions: 1. Change pulse type. Try chirp or other modulation such as LFM or LP M 2. What methods of correlation are you using? A modulated pulse would allow replica correlation and improve SNR. 3. Perhaps a highrr frequency would help.? 6kHz plus would get a way from household ambient. You could then use a front end filter. Good luck!

amazing app but I still prefer the other Sonar made by DICON alike but much more featured and provided with best UI

Was so excited at first to find an add free app with sonar like qualities. After installation it looked good ,but after tweaking every control possible it just didn't do what it claimed to do . It could be it only works on phones not tablets. Gratefully disappointed! Will try again if updated.

It just makes noise and has a greyscale graph... wasn't what I was expecting...
