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 motion detector attached to an outdoor, automatic light. 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.

4. Electro-optical sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electro-optical_sensor

   An optical sensor can measure the changes from one or several light beams. When a change occurs, the light sensor operates as a photoelectric trigger and therefore either increases or decreases the electrical output. An optical switch enables signals in optical fibers or integrated optical circuits to be switched selectively between circuits ...

5. Lighting control system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lighting_control_system

   These devices may include relays, occupancy sensors, photocells, light control switches or touchscreens, and signals from other building systems (such as fire alarm or HVAC). Adjustment of the system occurs both at device locations and at central computer locations via software programs or other interface devices.

   These days, private consumer drones are all over the news. Suspicious unidentified drones popping up in airfields. Drones making elaborate lighted formations to celebrate the New Year.

7. Occupancy sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occupancy_sensor

   Occupancy sensor types include: PIR sensors, which work on heat difference detection, measuring infrared radiation.Inside the device is a pyroelectric sensor which can detect the sudden presence of objects (such as humans) who radiate a temperature different from the temperature of the background, such as the room temperature of a wall.

8. Photoresistor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoresistor

   Three photoresistors with scale in mm Large CdS photocell from a street light. A photoresistor is less light-sensitive than a photodiode or a phototransistor. The latter two components are true semiconductor devices, while a photoresistor is a passive component that does not have a PN-junction. The photoresistivity of any photoresistor may vary ...

9. Security alarm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Security_alarm

   Reed Switch. The hermetically sealed reed switch is a common type of two-piece sensor. This switch operates with an electrically conductive switch that is either normally open or normally closed when under the influence of a magnetic field in respect to proximity to the second piece, which contains a magnet. When the magnet moves away from the ...
