The objective of this project is to detect motion using IR and PIR sensors. IR sensors: An infrared sensor is an electronic instrument which is used to sense certain characteristics of its ...

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 ...

In the microcontroller era today, Arduino is more than just a tool to accomplish hobby tasks. There is actually a close relationship between microcontroller technology and home security, since you can ...

This project demonstrates how to interface a PIR (Passive Infrared) motion sensor with an Arduino Uno R3 to detect movement and trigger an LED. When the PIR sensor detects motion, the LED turns on for ...

Have you ever wondered how speed guns measure the speed of moving vehicles or how an athlete's sprint speed is recorded? Normally these speed sensors work with radar or laser technology to bounce back ...

In a previous article, we looked at connecting various kinds of Arduino hardware to your Mac. Here's how to get started programming on them to create your own projects. In order to program your ...

Yes, you can program Arduino with Python using the PyFirmata library. While Arduino traditionally uses C++ code, Python can control Arduino boards through the Firmata protocol, allowing you to ...
