In the microcontroller era today, Arduino is more than just a tool to accomplish hobby tasks. There is actually a close relationship between microcontroller technology and home security, since you can ...

Let me introduce another simple microcontroller-based do-it-yourself circuit that detects motion and excites a light source in a flash. The “snooper” here is an ordinary passive infrared (PIR) motion ...

Halloween is coming up faster than you think: time to dust off the gravestones and the zombie lawn decorations! This year you may want to add a little something extra to give the trick-or-treaters a ...

Wireless sensor networks are nothing new to Hackaday, but [Felix]’s wireless PIR sensor node is something else entirely. Rarely do we see something so well put together that’s also so well designed ...

Working with multiple sensors on an Arduino can unlock richer, more interactive projects. By integrating motion, light, distance, and environmental readings, you can create systems that respond ...

Arduino’s open-source platform makes it easy for makers, students, and hobbyists to build powerful multi-sensor projects for ...

Motion detection has become an essential ingredient in traditional electronic security and now it is being utilized in access control and video surveillance systems. With more applications and so many ...
