PIR MOTION SENSOR SPECIFICATIONS AND DETAILS
Overview
PIR motion sensors allow you to sense motion, almost always used to detect whether a human has moved in or out of the sensors range. They are small, inexpensive, low-power, easy to use and don’t wear out. Commonly found in appliances and gadgets used in homes or businesses. Often referred to as PIR, “Passive Infrared”, “Pyroelectric”, or “IR motion” sensors.
Passive Infrared (PIR) sensors represent a remarkable advancement in the realm of motion detection technology. These sensors possess a unique capability: the ability to detect human motion within their designated range, making them an invaluable component in modern security and automation systems.
One of the standout features of PIR sensors is their compact and unobtrusive design, which not only contributes to their effectiveness but also ensures seamless integration into various applications. Being cost-effective, energy-efficient, and exceptionally durable, PIR sensors have earned their reputation as a dependable choice for both residential and commercial environments.
PIR sensors are used to detect motion from pets/humanoids from about 20 feet away (possibly works on zombies, not guaranteed). This one has an adjustable delay before firing (approx 2-4 seconds), adjustable sensitivity and we include a 1 foot (30 cm) cable with a socket so you can easily reposition the sensor or mount it using the two drills on either side Runs on 5V-16V power (if you need to run it off of 3V you can do that by bypassing the regulator, but that means doing a bit of soldering). Digital signal output is 3.3V high/low. Sensing range is about 7 meters (120 degree cone)
Highlights
- Detect motion up to 7 meters away
- Perfect for Raspberry Pi or Arduino Projects
- Easy to use for security applications
- Requires soldering of header pins
