Quick Overview
The DIYables mini pyroelectric PIR (passive infrared) motion sensor is a compact module designed to detect human or warm-body movement. Its small size and low power consumption make it ideal for battery-powered and space-constrained applications.
The sensor detects infrared radiation changes caused by moving people or animals within a 3-5 meter range and 100-degree cone angle. It works with Arduino, ESP32, ESP8266, Raspberry Pi, and other 3.3V-5V microcontrollers for automatic lighting, security systems, and occupancy detection.
