Ultrasonic sensors calculate characteristics of the subject of action by interpreting the echoes from radio or sound waves, respectively. These sensors are also known as transceivers when they perform the actions of both sending and receiving. They detect a wide range of materials, are not influenced by problematic surfaces, and are largely immune to environmental Influences.

Wireless Sensor Networks are networks of spatially distributed sensors which are used to monitor various environmental as well as physical conditions such as temperature, sound, pressure, etc. and to cooperatively pass their data through the network and send it to the main location for further processing.
