While PIR sensors can be used with Arduino and other microcontroller boards, those best-suited for hobby use are smart enough to perform simple tasks without any programming.

Outdoor light motion sensors can add a healthy level of security to your home. Here's how to set them up.

The components required to create the system include an Arduino Nano development board, digital potentiometer, flex sensor, a pair of push buttons an IMU, and of course a glove.

TK has combined a PIR with an Arduino to create a smart safety light for the house or workshop. Follow along as this gets built out into a more extensive project.

The Arduino Nano is programmed to control the frame’s components, which include LEDs and a vibrating motor. These components work together to create the slow-motion effect.
