Hello everyone,
I made a basic interaction in which one audio file is triggered on a wave shield using a Sharp IR distance sensor. It uses Wave_HC.h, WaveUtil.h & SharpDistSensor.h.
Strangely, I had it working fine.. but when I revisited the project a week later, there is now a slight issue: when triggered, the audio plays three times in a loop before returning to reading the distance data. It seems to repeat the initial reading (<800mm) and use it to re-trigger the audio two more times. The IR has no obstruction at this point.
Any ideas? I've tried tweaking and adjusting code and hardware connections for hours and so confused.. perhaps someone with more coding knowledge might know of an additional line or two that could skip over this glitch?
Thanks.
