[ladyada] has a freshly-published and amazingly thorough tutorial on passive infrared (PIR) motion sensors. Most often seen in security floodlights and automatic doors, in creative hands these sensors ...

In this tutorial we will use a Passive Infra-Red (PIR) sensor as an input to trigger a LED. A PIR sensor works by detecting heat as an object passes by it. Plug the micro: bit into the GPIO shield.

This example can be divided into two parts – Passive Infrared (PIR) sensor interface and Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) communication. Both of these parts are independent to each other meaning any choice ...

The main aim of this mini-project is to demonstrate the working of a PIR motion-based light bulbs. This is to mainly minimize energy consumption and save electricity bills. Sometimes people forget to ...

Moderately priced Passive Infrared PIR Sensor modules are now widely available. By using these readymade and pre-configured PIR sensors, even an average electronics hobbyist can construct his/her own ...

The Bee Motion S3 is an ESP32-S3 WiFi and Bluetooth IoT board with a PIR motion sensor beside the more usual I/Os, Qwiic connector, USB-C port, and LiPo battery support. It is at least the third PIR ...

Murata SMD TYPE IRS-D200ST00R1 is one of the world’s smallest PIR motion sensors at just 6 x 6 mm in size and with a 2.6 mm thickness. Its name implies, it’s a reflowable SMD component, which ...
