Let's get to work!
You more or less have the building blocks ready for this project. Let us proceed with the rest of the project.
Problem Statement: Give yourself the robotic High-5 you deserve!
Solution: A High-5-ing robot that senses if your hand is close, and moves to High-5 you.
You have probably guessed it. We are going to use our good ol' ultrasonic proximity sensor to sense your hand.
