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.

This article explains an upgraded smart solid-state AC switch system that uses microwave Doppler radar instead of traditional ...

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 ...

Zigbee is a protocol that has been around for quite a long time, and you can purchase many cheap smart sensors to incorporate into your own Zigbee network. Zigbee is its own network, meaning that it ...

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 ...

[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 ...

The Xsens Avior is a lightweight, OEM form factor inertial measurement unit (IMU) with a compact 36.8mm x 40mm footprint which offers enhanced performance in a wide variety of industrial and ...

Packing six degrees of freedom in a 3 mm x 5.5 mm x 1 mm package, the LSM330D multi-sensor module integrates three-axis sensing of linear and angular motion. Packing six degrees of freedom in a 3 mm x ...

Key Takeaways Motion sensor lights can reduce home energy usage by 30% to 50% compared to traditional always-on lighting ...
