  2. Passive infrared sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_infrared_sensor

    A passive infrared sensor (PIR sensor) is an electronic sensor that measures infrared (IR) light radiating from objects in its field of view. They are most often used in PIR-based motion detectors. PIR sensors are commonly used in security alarms and automatic lighting applications. PIR sensors detect general movement, but do not give ...

  3. Motion detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_detector

    A motion detector is an electrical device that utilizes a sensor to detect nearby motion (motion detection). Such a device is often integrated as a component of a system that automatically performs a task or alerts a user of motion in an area. They form a vital component of security, automated lighting control, home control, energy efficiency ...

    Seeeduino V4.2 is an Arduino-compatible board, which is based on ATmega328P MCU, Arduino UNO bootloader, and with an ATmega16U2 as a UART-to-USB converter. The three on-board Grove interface can make your board connect to over 300 Grove modules. Seeeduino Cortex-M0+] SAMD21 Cortex-M0+. Seeed Studio.

  5. Linear encoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_encoder

    Visualization of magnetic structures of a linear encoder (recorded with MagView). A linear encoder is a sensor, transducer or readhead paired with a scale that encodes position. The sensor reads the scale in order to convert the encoded position into an analog or digital signal, which can then be decoded into position by a digital readout (DRO ...

  6. AVR microcontrollers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVR_microcontrollers

    ATmega328 P in 28-pin narrow dual in-line package (DIP -28N). It is commonly found on Arduino boards. AVR is a family of microcontrollers developed since 1996 by Atmel, acquired by Microchip Technology in 2016. These are modified Harvard architecture 8-bit RISC single-chip microcontrollers.

  8. Pedometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedometer

    Pedometer. A pedometer, or step-counter, is a device, usually portable and electronic or electromechanical, that counts each step a person takes by detecting the motion of the person's hands or hips. Because the distance of each person's step varies, an informal calibration, performed by the user, is required if presentation of the distance ...

  9. Traffic light control and coordination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traffic_light_control_and...

    A junction for road vehicles and pedestrians controlled by traffic lights in the UK. The various vehicle and pedestrian movements are separated in either time or space for safety and efficiency. The normal function of traffic lights requires more than sight control and coordination to ensure that traffic and pedestrians move as smoothly, and ...
