The basic of functioning

The project is really simple, even if it needs some electronic skills in order to manage the sensor output. Basically, our BeagleBone Black just needs to periodically poll the ultrasonic sensor output and then turn on the LEDs according to the distance from the wall: as level indicator lower is the distance and more LEDs are turned on.
