PIR sensors are experiencing sustained growth in 2026 driven largely by the expansion of smart home technology and building automation.

Here is one simple circuit of a general-purpose white LED security light with Passive Infrared (PIR) Motion sensing mechanism. At the heart of the circuit is a PIR sensor module SB0061. SB0061 is a ...

Detecting and measuring movement is an essential element for many industrial and commercial IoT applications – from lighting and security to assisted driving. Motion detection systems consist of a ...

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 ...

Motion detectors are widely known for their role in home security systems, but their usefulness extends far beyond guarding doors and windows. These compact devices can automate daily tasks, enhance ...

ICP DAS USA releases PIR-130-DC, a 1-channel passive infrared (PIR) sensor module that detects human-body generated infrared waves within a range of approximately 8 meters (315 inches) in diameter ...

Motion sensing technology has come a long way since its inception several years ago. Today we can find motion sensors in almost any home product, which not only adds convenience but also acts as an ...

Unlike infrared optical sensors that use an LED transmitter and IR receiver, the PIR emits nothing. As its “passive” name suggests, it responds only to infrared energy radiated by the object being ...
