-  - Data recorder. The values of all analogue sensors are measured constantly and minimum and maximum values are recorded. By pressing button S1 the user may change the information displayed on the LCD. Displayed must be: name of the sensor (shortly) and present minimum and maximum values. The sequence of changing the sensors: IR distance sensor -> Photoresistor -> Thermistor  -> Potentiometer.  +  - Data recorder. The values of all analogue sensors (potentiometer, thermistor, and the photoresistor) are measured constantly and minimum and maximum values are recorded. By pressing button S1 the user may change the information displayed on the LCD. Displayed must be: name of the sensor (shortly) and present minimum and maximum values.  
-  - Distance sensor. If the button number S2 is pressed, 10 sequential measurements are taken place in one second. After measuring the average distance to the object in decimetres it is displayed on 7-segment indicator. By pressing button S1, minimum measured value is displayed and by pressing button S3 maximum value is displayed.    +  - UH Distance sensor. If the button number S2 is pressed, 10 sequential measurements are taken place in one second. After measuring the average distance to the object in decimetres it is displayed on 7-segment indicator. By pressing button S1, minimum measured value is displayed and by pressing button S3 maximum value is displayed.    
-  - Velocity. According to the changing rate of the distance to the object, it is shown with LEDs as follows: slow change – green LED, moderate change – yellow LED and rapid change red LED. The speed may be displayed on the LCD. +  - Velocity. According to the changing rate of the distance to the object (as measured by infrared or ultrasonic sensor), it is shown with LEDs as follows: slow change – green LED, moderate change – yellow LED and rapid change red LED. The speed may be displayed on the LCD.  
-  - Automatic measuring range. According to the current measuring results minimum and maximum temperatures measured are found and correspondingly the range in which the values fit is scaled from  0 to 9. Value is displayed on 7-segment indicator.+
   - By combining IR and ultrasonic distance sensors the distance to the object, velocity of the object and direction of the object are determined. Results are displayed on LCD.   - By combining IR and ultrasonic distance sensors the distance to the object, velocity of the object and direction of the object are determined. Results are displayed on LCD.
 +  - Using the acceleration sensor detect the movement of an object and the direction of movement, which is displayed on a stripe with direction of the center of the LCD. The stripe length corresponds to the absolute value of the acceleration.
