#170716 - How to measure height using sensors...
Hi All, I am here with some query.
I want to make a digital Body Mass Index scale. Which i can make by entering the height manually. But the Problem is that I have to measure it by using ultrasonic or infrared sensors.
Does anybody knows how to do this???
The idea is not clear in my mind....
1) Which type of sensors to be used ?
2) How do i will know that the reflected light is from 4ft, means will it be millivolts on which i has to process or what????
I am not able to visualise this concept as that of pressure, temp, strain-guage Transducers.

Any kind of help is welcomed..
