Ultrasonic sensor can detect any kind of targets (more or less). The effective detection distance depends on: target dimensions (more the target is big, more ultrasonic signal is reflected, higher the sensing distance that it is possible to reach), materials (compact targets, as metal, wood, liquids, reflect a lot of the ultrasonic signal – low density materials, as powders, foams, absorb the majority of the ultrasonic beam). Sound absorbing materials can be detected only at very low distance. In the direct diffuse sensors, other factors have to be considered:
