Possible applications for the IR Detector proximity sensor include: – Reflective sensor for hand dryers, soap dispensers, water faucets, and toilet flush valves. – Security and pet gates.

After some searching, I ended up using a microcontroller and a piece of code borrowed from the web that I tweaked and adapted. The microcontroller-based concept was chosen because I wanted to scale ...

Arduino Based Wireless Intrusion Detection Using IR Sensor and GSM Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) strive to catch computer system intrusion & utilize by any garnering and analyzing data.

Using motion detectors and an Ardunio you can add a little extra wow to your Halloween displays ... Here is the Arduino code for the Parallax sensor. int motion_1 = 2; int light_1 = 13; void ...

The system here uses a cheap Arduino board, a few sensors, and a magnetic contact switch. It’s then hooked into the Adafruit IO and connected to IFTTT, so you can set up alerts in any way you like.
