P2017-003 garage door sensor

This weekend i have got the pieces working for an ultrasonic ethernet project

The project is set up to warn when the garage door is open.

Using a sensor the solution will determine if the garage door is open and if it is open too long warn the owners.

The ultrasonic sensor was surprisingly easy to get working, thanks to a clever blog post by...

The ethernet was also easy - but I had to include different libraries to the standard arduino ones but this was api compatible so the tutorial code was still enough to connect up to the web.
