TK has combined a PIR with an Arduino to create a smart safety light for the house or workshop. Follow along as this gets built out into a more extensive project.

“To function effectively as part of a security system, motion sensor lights must be installed at the correct height and in the right location. Generally, they should be mounted at least seven ...

Blinding light, guiding light, or something in between, the best outdoor motion sensor lights make sense as a home accessory.

Having recently moved into a new home, I wanted to set up HomeKit lights in the kitchen that would turn on and off automatically. Ideally. So I got some Philips Hue bulbs, an Eve motion sensor ...

When the sensor detects motion — i.e. someone passing in the hallway or someone opening the door — it turns on the two lights only if there isn’t enough ambient light to begin with.

Historically, we’ve used IR and ultrasonic sensors but [Makers Mashup] decided to use an ESP32-Cam as a motion sensor in his latest animatronic creation.

Philips Hue is introducing some new features that make it easier to match brightness levels on different lights and fine-tune motion sensor automation.
