Discussion:
The motion sensor uses an ultrasonic transducer to both transmit an ultrasonic
wave, and to measure its echo return. Objects in the range of 0.15 to 10 meters
can accurately be measured to give distance, velocity, and acceleration readings
using this method.
The motion sensor can collect data using the following measuring units:

Meters (m) – The SI (International System of Units) distance unit

Meters/second (m/s) – The SI velocity unit, which measures the distance
traveled over time.

Meters/second
2
(m/s
2
) – The SI acceleration unit, which measures the change
in velocity over time.
The motion sensor has two working ranges – one between 0.2 and 10.0 meters
and one between 0.15 to 2 meters.
