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 ...

In the microcontroller era today, Arduino is more than just a tool to accomplish hobby tasks. There is actually a close relationship between microcontroller technology and home security, since you can ...

In this YouTube video, the team from Mythbusters try to beat a thermal intrusion security sensor (a passive infrared sensor, aka PIR, that detects thermal differences). See how many attempts and what ...

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 ...

Ferrithemaker has published a new Raspberry Pi project to the Hackster.io website this week, providing details on how you can create your very own DIY Raspberry Pi intruder alarm and detection system.

The VST-897EX-HaLow is an outdoor PIR motion sensor camera for fast, reliable visual verification using Wi-Fi HaLow, with live video streaming for real-time alarm assessment. It captures Full HD (1920 ...

IR-15 is super compact in design and yet has a wide detection angle of 160 degrees. It uses Lithium battery, thus ensuring longer battery life. Moreover, it is tamper-proof against opening of its ...

Home automation with high usefulness and low annoyance tends to rely on reliable person sensing, and [francescopace]’s ESPectre shows one way to do that cheaply and easily by leveraging hardware ...
