What is a PIR sensor? It’s a volumetric motion sensor able to detect the infrared radiation emitted by any person or animal moving within its detection range.
The detector measures this infrared radiation and translates its detection by a high output signal on its SIG pin.
Here, this presence detector has been integrated into a module compatible with the Grove interface.
It’s a small sensor that is extremely simple to both install and use. All you have to do is connect it to your board, and possibly adjust its parameters using the two potentiometers integrated into the circuit.
This type of PIR sensor is known to offer some considerable advantages. First, it is not sensitive to noise and will therefore react only to the actual presence of a human or animal within its detection range.
In addition, its beams are invisible and cause no reflection. It is therefore the ideal accessory for building a DIY detection system, for example when filming an animal documentary, for a remote surveillance system or indeed any other type of surveillance.
Please note that this type of sensor is quite sensitive to sudden changes in temperature.
Below are some very useful links that will make it even easier for you to install and use the passive infrared sensor:
