These sensors only have three pins, making them easy to wire up and code. You can follow this Random Nerd Tutorials guide to get started with your Arduino motion sensors, but there are plenty of ...

While PIR sensors can be used with Arduino and other microcontroller boards, those best-suited for hobby use (the kind with a white golf ball-like semi-sphere lens, electrical connectors called ...

This voltage can be read by an Arduino digital input and then the Arduino can act upon it. The PIR Motion Sensor on the left is made by Parallax and sold by Radio Shack. The one on the right comes ...

Let me introduce another simple microcontroller-based do-it-yourself circuit that detects motion ... and Arduino IDE compatibility. The code is an Arduino project for the Digispark Attiny85 to turn on ...

It’s a fairly simple project, too: just hook an Arduino Uno up to a motion sensor and an electronic switch called a relay, then plug in your fan, and you’re good to go. If that sounds ...

Matt Williamson built a tiny, Arduino-based motion sensor that will SMS you when something moves by your desk or into a room. It’s completely open source and the notifications system runs on ...

The Leap Motion controller is a rather impressive little sensor bar that is capable of ... The actual code being sent to the Arduino is pretty simple. The Leap Motion SDK does all the complex ...

Basically, the controller is a glove with an embedded Arduino microcontroller and accelerometer. The accelerometer uses sensors to detect the motion and speed of your hand, while the connected ...

Created by Rabid Prototypes the Arduino development board allows you to easily add light, sound and motion sensors to your creations and is powered by a 48MHz 32-bit ARM Cortex M0+ micro ...
