Hi, I have a problem with the Raspberry Pi 3 and the Grove Pi, I had seen some code on the website but I doesn’t seem to work even if I change the port of the Ultrasonic Sensor. Below there is a picture of the setup as well as the full code.

Hi @zejza69,
The function for the ultrasonic sensor takes one argument.
That argument represents the pin number to which the sensor is plugged in.
I have also tested it and it works (w/o the picamera attached as I don’t have one around).
You should have something like this:
ultrasonic_pin = 0 # based on the sensor's location in your photo
while True:
if grovepi.ultrasonicRead(ultrasonic_pin) < 100: # here we go
print("Object detected")
Some code seems impossible to debug, and you end up hitting your head against the table looking for the issue, only to come back a little later and find a miss-spelling or other detail.
Other than that, I see you want to create a surveillance system.
It seems like a really fun project. Maybe you can keep us updated with your work.
Thank you!
