Passive Infrared Sensor (PIR) Module
The Passive Infrared (PIR) Sensor Module is an essential component for motion detection applications. Commonly referred to as "PIR", "Pyroelectric", "Passive Infrared", or "IR Motion" sensor, this module includes an on-board pyroelectric sensor, conditioning circuitry, and a dome-shaped Fresnel lens. It effectively senses the movement of people, animals, or other objects, making it ideal for burglar alarms and automatically-activated lighting systems.
