Phidget Motion Sensor

Description

• Phidget Motion Sensor
• Detects motion through infrared radiation
• Measures motion up to 10 m
• Lets you fill more of the sensors FOV
• Features a steady voltage when no objects are detected
• Detects movement in a small room or hallway

The Phidget Motion Sensor allows you to detect motion up to ten meters away. This sensor will output a steady voltage when no objects are detected. The voltage output will increase or decrease when motion is detected.

A movement that fills more of the sensors field of view will result in a larger change in voltage. This Phidget connects to your computer through a VINT Hub.

Detects motion through infrared radiation: Excellent for detecting the movement of people or animals.

Passive recalibration: Objects that stop moving inside the sensors view wont trigger the sensor until they start moving again.

Specifications

Board Properties

• Controlled By: Voltage Input

Motion Sensor

• Sensor Output Type: Non-Ratiometric
• Horizontal Detection Range: 70
• Vertical Detection Range: * 70
• Motion Detection Distance: ** 10 m

*Detection angle is reduced on the side of the lens where the connector blocks its view
**Detection distance varies with the size and speed of the object. The testing was conducted with people moving at walking speed.
