I can't find the right sensor

hi, recently I thought about building a device with arduino that needs distance sensors like the classic HC-SR04 sensors. the problem is that these are too bulky, I would need sensors about the shape and size of an SD card that work in a range from 1.5 meters to 2 meters, longer distances are not essential. I searched for a long time but I found very little, would anyone be able to recommend me sensors with the shape as I wrote before? Any type is fine

Your post was MOVED to its current location as it is more suitable

What made you think that it had anything to do with the emergency response to Covid 19 ?

to detect people near me obviously. Nah i'm joking, I selected the wrong catagories for mistake, i'm sorry

Hello
Take a view into this tutorial.

Have a nice day and enjoy coding in C++.

thanks man,I'll check it

This specific microwave sensor is larger than you wish, others may be found perhaps smaller. I have a friend using on for robotics and he raves about it.

Other laser rangefinders.

It looks thicker than i thought, there is some alternatives that are more flat? it's fine also a 2d sensor.

TOF rangefinders:

I appreciate it but I don't have such a huge budget. I can spend less than 5 euros for each sensor because I need to buy a bunch of them.

this is pratically perfect, if i can't find something cheaper i'll go for this way, thank you
