PIR Motion Sensor

The PIR Motion Sensor is a passive infrared detection module used to detect human movement and body heat by sensing changes in infrared radiation. The commonly used HC-SR501 PIR sensor combines a pyroelectric infrared sensor with a Fresnel lens to detect motion within its sensing range. It is widely used in security systems, automatic lighting, smart homes, robotics, and Arduino projects.
