Is it possible to use this sensors without micro controller? #1

Thank you for digging all information about these sensors?

I like the size and extra interfaces of these sensors. I was wondering if it is some how possible to pair these sensors with cheap RF 433 wireless transmitters like: https://lastminuteengineers.com/433mhz-rf-wireless-arduino-tutorial/ without using micro controller for simple battery powered wireless application.

Thanks.

I2C and serial mode need a controller using the respective protocol to speak to the sensors. Direct modes will need a device that initiates a measurement and takes the time until the echo arrives. So, no, you'll need a microcontroller.

Anyway, please note that issues are for reporting problems with this repository. Please use the discussions page or a forum with a larger audience like arduino.cc for general questions like these.
