Driven damped harmonic oscillator resonance with an Arduino

In this paper we propose a simple experimental apparatus that can be used to show quantitative and qualitative results of resonance in a driven damped harmonic oscillator. The driven oscillation is made by a servo motor, and the oscillation amplitude is measured by an ultrasonic position sensor. Both are controlled by an Arduino board. The frequency of free oscillation measured was campatible with the resonance frequency that was measured.
