Panasonic Industry unveils a new generation of passive infrared (PIR) motion sensing arriving with a clear message: performance no longer needs to come at the cost of design. A recently introduced ...

Panasonic Industry has announced its latest PIR (passive infrared) motion detector, a Flat Wide Detection Type (12 lens) sensor. It includes PaPIRs+ (Panasonic Passive Infrared Sensors+), the ...

Aqara is introducing a new presence sensor that is a natural addition for HomeKit users who want reliable automations without the need for a camera. The new Aqara FP300 combines mmWave presence ...

Designed by Nova Radio Labs in the US, the Novaduino Environmental Sensor Kit is an Arduino-programmable air quality and weather monitoring solution built around the company’s own Novaduino Display ...

Hi, I'm Bill. I'm a software developer with a passion for making and electronics. I do a lot of things and here is where I document my learning in order to be able to inspire other people to make ...

This is a library for the Arduino IDE that helps interface with ST's VL53L4CD time-of-flight distance sensor. The library makes it simple to configure the sensor and read range data from it via I²C.

As radar technology continues to advance, it offers an increasingly broad range of capabilities, making it a viable alternative to traditional passive infrared (PIR) sensors. With radar’s enhanced ...

The FP1E’s millimeter wave technology provides for a much more nuanced look at whether a room is occupied or not, but you’ll need one of Aqara’s Zigbee or Matter smart home hubs to use it. Whatever ...

I recently had to build an infrared close proximity sensor that could tell if something was dropped in a parcel delivery drop box. After some searching, I ended up using a microcontroller and a piece ...
