This is a simple to use Arduino motion sensor. Power it up and wait 1-2 seconds for the sensor to get a snapshot of the still room. If anything moves after that period, the ‘alarm’ pin will go low. This sensor checks for infrared heat in its detecting angle. The human body, pets, and several other things emit energy that the sensor is looking for, it compares with the snapshot, and if there is a recent change it triggers.

Get on with your Home alarm security audit gear and experiment with this sensor to get a better understanding of its efficiency and working method. Infrared motion detectors are common all around the world for many different appliances. It’s great for an Arduino or home automation project that requires automated motion feedback. Commonly found on automatic trigger light systems, where lights are ON when someone is in range and OFF when no one is around. Save power or trigger other actuators like a door opener or pet feeder.

Package Includes:

OP.90 and OP.180 are two limit switches with different orientation placements. Built based on the ITR9606, which consists of an infrared emitting diode and a silicon phototransistor.
They are used for controlling machinery as part of a control system, as a safety interlock, or to count objects passing a point. A limit switch is an electromechanical device that consists of an actuator mechanically linked to a set of contacts. When an object comes into contact with the actuator, the device operates the contacts to make or break an electrical connection
