2. Proximity sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proximity_sensor

   An infrared proximity sensor Optical proximity sensor in a 2016 Samsung smartphone.A proximity sensor is a standard feature of most smartphones, disabling the touchscreen when positioned near an ear during phone calls; more recent (late 2019-early 2020) smartphones with OLED displays may have the sensor mounted under the display.

3. Passive infrared sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_infrared_sensor

   The sensor converts the resulting change in the incoming infrared radiation into a change in the output voltage, and this triggers the detection. Objects of similar temperature but different surface characteristics may also have a different infrared emission pattern, and thus moving them with respect to the background may trigger the detector ...

4. Electro-optical sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electro-optical_sensor

   An optical sensor converts light rays into electronic signals. It measures the physical quantity of light and then translates it into a form readable by an instrument. An optical sensor is generally part of a larger system that integrates a source of light, a measuring device, and the optical sensor. This is often connected to an electrical ...

5. Photoelectric sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoelectric_sensor

   Remote photoelectric sensors used for remote sensing contain only the optical components of a sensor. The circuitry for power input, amplification, and output switching is located elsewhere, typically in a control panel. This allows the sensor, itself, to be very small. Also, the controls for the sensor are more accessible, since they may be ...

6. IRCF360 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRCF360

   Infrared Control Freak 360 (IRCF360) is a 360-degree proximity sensor and a motion sensing devices, developed by ROBOTmaker. The sensor is in BETA developers release as a low cost (software configurable) sensor for use within research, technical and hobby projects.

7. Motion detector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_detector

   A passive infrared detector mounted on circuit board (right), along with photoresistive detector for visible light (left). This is the type most commonly encountered in household motion sensing devices and is designed to turn on a light only when motion is detected and when the surrounding environment is sufficiently dark.
