We had support for this device on the Nodo Project and the plugin has already been ported to the new ESP plugin type. But only in theory, because it has never been tested. (too busy with other ESP related stuff )

So the plugin has been build but needs to be tested. If it's ok, it will be released with the next ESP Easy update.

Just hooked up a HC-SR04 sensor and added the plugin to the source folder. It works and Domoticz receives the distance in cm...

What purpose did you have in mind for this device? Create your own wireless car parking distance sensor?

I have plans with the HC-SR04 as well. The idea is to use it to detect if my garage port is open or not. The sensor will sit on the ceiling and measure distance. The reason I want to use this, instead of the classic reed door sensor, is that I often leave the port 10-20 cm open (for better ventilation). The sensor will be placed in a distance from the wall, so when the port is open more than 20 cm, it will pass the sensor and be considered open.
