Sensor pairs near-invisible aesthetics with sharply higher sensitivity, targeting smarter, cleaner motion detection in buildings and lighting systems.

Panasonic Industry announces the launch of its latest innovation in PIR motion sensors: the Flat Wide Detection Type (12 lens ...

Movement-based lighting suggests activity inside, which helps deter opportunists. Automatic light on stairs, landings and entrances reduces falls and avoids leaving circuits on. Hands-free access ...

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 ...

Panasonic Industry has introduced a new passive infrared (PIR) motion sensor featuring a flat lens design, marking the first product to incorporate the company’s PaPIRs+ sensing technology.

The size and price of the ESP wifi modules have quickly made them into one of the preferred building blocks for IoT devices. Unfortunately they are not particularly well suited for very low power ...

Figure 1 shows a way to control a light (or other 120-V ac appliance) with a passive-infrared (PIR) alarm sensor. The original concept was to turn a closet or shop light on whenever someone went into.
