  2. Passive infrared sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_infrared_sensor

    A PIR sensor can detect changes in the amount of infrared radiation impinging upon it, which varies depending on the temperature and surface characteristics of the objects in front of the sensor. [2] When an object, such as a person, passes in front of the background, such as a wall, the temperature at that point in the sensor's field of view ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Passive_infrared_sensor

    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]

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. Security alarm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Security_alarm

    PIR sensors identify abrupt changes in temperature at a given point. As an intruder walks in front of the sensor, the temperature at that point will rise from room temperature to body temperature and then back again. This quick change triggers the detection. PIR sensors designed to be wall- or ceiling-mounted come in various fields of view ...

  7. Nondispersive infrared sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondispersive_infrared_sensor

    A nondispersive infrared sensor (or NDIR sensor) is a simple spectroscopic sensor often used as a gas detector.It is non-dispersive in the fact that no dispersive element (e.g a prism or diffraction grating as is often present in other spectrometers) is used to separate out (like a monochromator) the broadband light into a narrow spectrum suitable for gas sensing.

  8. Rhino Passive Infrared Defeat System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhino_Passive_Infrared...

    The Rhino Passive Infrared Defeat System (also known simply as Rhino) was an early detonation Counter-IED system. It was mounted to the front of a vehicle and used heat to prematurely detonate any hidden improvised explosive devices (IEDs) while the vehicle was at a safe distance away from the blast.

  9. Surface-mount technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface-mount_technology

    Surface-mount technology (SMT), originally called planar mounting, [1] is a method in which the electrical components are mounted directly onto the surface of a printed circuit board (PCB). [2] An electrical component mounted in this manner is referred to as a surface-mount device ( SMD ).
