Distance Estimation of Two Distance Sensors

In modern world sensors play important role where they help to acquire information about the procecess, such as temperature, velocity,distance, etc. Based on this information acquired from the sensorsdecisions can be made, for example to increase heating in the buildingor accelerate the car.In many cases, a single sensor type cannot provide enough information for complex decision making, for example, when the physicalproperties of the process are outside of the measurement range of thesensor. As a result, in order to achieve desired performance levels, acombination of sensors should be used in an integrated manner.Sensor generated data need to be processed into information throughthe use of appropriate decision making models in order to improveoverall performance. Here we compare two sensors which are shortrange and long-range sensor. We use a short-range and long-rangesensor, and calculates the distance from both sensors to the same object by using Arduino UNO microcontroller. The sensors that we usein our work have overlapping or common interval in their measurementranges. Therefore we investigated how we can make a decision aboutthe distance to an object when the acquired data from both sensors isin that common range.
