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.

Make light work of it.

In this video, I'm exploring the use of Mini PIR Sensors with ESP32 with both Arduino-based projects as well as making a movement sensor for Home Assistant by using ESPHome. The sensor is quite ...

Let me introduce another simple microcontroller-based do-it-yourself circuit that detects motion and excites a light source in a flash. The “snooper” here is an ordinary passive infrared (PIR) motion ...

There’s no shortage of ESP32 development boards out there, with many of them offering some “killer app” feature which may or may not align with whatever it is you’re trying to do. But if you’ve got a ...

Motion detection has become an essential ingredient in traditional electronic security and now it is being utilized in access control and video surveillance systems. With more applications and so many ...

ICP DAS USA releases PIR-130-DC, a 1-channel passive infrared (PIR) sensor module that detects human-body generated infrared waves within a range of approximately 8 meters (315 inches) in diameter ...
