The motion detector is not only used as intruder alarm but also used in many applications like home automation system, energy efficiency system, etc. The motion detector will detect the motion of the ...

Gesture-controlled gadgets were all the rage at CES back in January. I’m still not convinced it’s a good way to change TV channels, but it can’t hurt to learn how to program for a motion sensor.

The motion sensor was designed using a pyroelectric sensor which is essentially a FET with a window in the case opening onto an infrared-sensitive gate. The circuit is monitoring the changes in the ...

Many close-proximity motion detectors use the classic, widely available passive-infrared (PIR) approach, which is effective but has limited sensitivity and adjustability, and can’t “see” through ...

Motion sensors are a useful way to automate lights and other tasks in your smart home.
