This motion detector alarm can detect a moving person from a distance of 1 meter. It uses a dual IR Transmitter-Receiver module HOA1405. When the sensor detects the reflected IR rays, alarm will sound ...

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 ...

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

It’s really hard to overstate how awesome ESP8266 development boards like the Wemos D1 Mini really are. For literally a couple of dollars you can get a decently powerful Wi-Fi enabled microcontroller ...
