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. Security alarm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Security_alarm

   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. PIR sensors identify abrupt changes in temperature at a given point.

4. 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. 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.

6. 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.
