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.

The Philips Motion Sensor Floodlight is on sale at Amazon for 10% off, and shoppers say it's "perfect for backyard security." ...

Automated test stations don’t always need proprietary test tools. Using a microcontroller, a PC, and free software tools, we developed an automated test station to test and align motion sensors. Test ...

The LC-104-PIMW from DSC is a dual-technology motion detector that combines passive infrared and microwave detection with pet immunity. It has unique microwave motion sensor module with micro-strip ...

The LSM320HAY30 integrates a three-axis digital accelerometer with a two-axis analog gyroscope in a single module, a feat that allegedly improves performance, boosts reliability, reduces size, and ...

For design engineers seeking to extend solenoid life and reduce energy consumption in automation or control systems, the new ...

[Muris] is pumping out the home lighting hacks. He developed this motion sensing module as an add-on to the IR switch we saw last week. There’s some kind of fuse box above his entry door and its white ...

As things get smaller, we can fit more processing power into devices like robots to allow them to do more things or interact with their environment in new ways. If not, we can at least build them for ...
