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 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 ...

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 ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
