- The Pololu Sharp Distance Sensor (GP2Y0D810Z0F) with a sensing range of 10 cm is an analog sensor, so you will need to use an analog input pin on your Arduino or similar microcontroller to read the sensor output. Here's a simple code example for Arduino that reads the distance value and prints it to the Serial Monitor:
- To use the code, connect the sensor's output to the analog pin A0 on your Arduino board, and upload the code using the Arduino IDE. Open the Serial Monitor to see the distance readings.
- Remember to connect the sensor's VCC to the 5V pin on the Arduino and the GND to the GND pin on the Arduino.
- Please note that the threshold value of 2.8 V is just an example and may not be precise for all situations. You may need to adjust this value based on your specific sensor and application. It's also a good idea to consult the sensor's datasheet for more information on the output voltage-to-distance relationship.

- if (voltage > 2.8) { // If the voltage is greater than 2.8 V, the distance is less than 10 cm
- Serial.println("Distance is less than 10 cm");
