I recently had to build an infrared close proximity sensor that could tell if something was dropped in a parcel delivery drop box. After some searching, I ended up using a microcontroller and a piece ...

Makers and developers looking for a motion sensor Arduino Shield, are sure to be interested in this new ICU-Duino which has been created by Patrick Thomas Mitchell based in Ottawa, Canada. The ...

Recently, I exhausted my stock of common passive infrared (PIR) motion sensor modules and was looking for a new one to play with. I searched the web for a small type with self-contained electronics.

Unlike infrared optical sensors that use an LED transmitter and IR receiver, the PIR emits nothing. As its “passive” name suggests, it responds only to infrared energy radiated by the object being ...

GlacialLight has added the GL-PIR10C, a versatile infrared motion sensing switch, to its popular range of lighting products. GlacialLight has added the GL-PIR10C, a versatile infrared motion sensing ...

(Passive InfraRed sensor) A device used to detect motion by receiving infrared radiation. When a person walks past the sensor, it detects a rapid change of infrared energy and sends a signal. PIR ...

I set up my $25 WyzeCam v2 with the PIR Motion Sensor and Sensor Bridge accessory to catch some hummingbirds feeding. I can't use video motion detection because the feeder is constantly swaying in the ...

Combination flame & passive infrared motion sensor with two output modes including “And” detection and “Individual” modes. Designed to minimize nuisance alarms where fast acting spark/flame may be ...
