  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.

  3. 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.

  5. Security alarm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Security_alarm

    A passive infrared sensor used to detect motion. The passive infrared (PIR) motion detector is one of the most common sensors found in household and small business environments. This sensor does not generate or radiate energy; it works entirely by detecting the heat energy given off by other objects.

  6. Camera trap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera_trap

    A camera trap with a passive infrared (PIR) sensor. A camera trap is a camera that is automatically triggered by motion in its vicinity, like the presence of an animal or a human being. It is typically equipped with a motion sensor—usually a passive infrared (PIR) sensor or an active infrared (AIR) sensor using an infrared light beam. [1]

  7. Infrared search and track - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_search_and_track

    An IRST sensor on a Sukhoi Su-35. An Infrared Search and Track (IRST) system (sometimes known as infrared sighting and tracking) is a method for detecting and tracking objects which give off infrared radiation, such as the infrared signatures of jet aircraft and helicopters.

    1) "Strictly speaking, individual PIR sensors do not detect motion; rather, they detect abrupt changes in temperature at a given point using the Infrared radiation level" 2) "Moving objects of identical temperature, however, will trigger a detection because that is the sensor's job, to detect motion. It detects motion regardless of temperature.[4]

  9. Infrared detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_detector

    An infrared detector is a detector that reacts to infrared (IR) radiation. The two main types of detectors are thermal and photonic (photodetectors). The thermal effects of the incident IR radiation can be followed through many temperature dependent phenomena. [2] Bolometers and microbolometers are based on changes in resistance.
