Infrared motion detector with Microcontroller Circuit

A simple automatic motion-detection Digital Camera Circuit

When the sensor detects movement in a room it will take a burst of
10 photos with the digital camera. Each photo is taken at 0.5sec
interval. After the 10 photos, the camera waits 3 seconds for further
movement and if it is detected, the process is repeated until 80
photos are taken.
The photos can then be downloaded to your PC (via the USB
connection on the board) for viewing.

The Directional Infrared Detector Module Circuit (DIRM)

Figure shows a block diagram of the DIRM. A Fresnel lens
captures the incident IR and focuses it towards the
pyroelectric sensor increasing the sensitivity of the sensor
and improving its directional response. The resultant signal
passes through a low pass filter, which removes any high
frequency noise generated by mechanical vibration. The
output of the filter is then fed into a differentiator, which
produces an output voltage proportional to the rate of
change of the incident IR. The frequency response of this
differentiator is also rolled off at high frequencies, further
reducing the effects of undesired signals. The window
comparator produces a logic output whenever the rate of
change of incident IR exceeds a given set point.
An 8-bit PIC16F84 microcontroller processes the logic
signals and controls the rotating platform and reports
information to the team leader.

Ultra-low Power Motion Detection using the MSP430F2013

A system capable of detecting motion using a dual element PIR
sensor is shown in Figure 1 using the MSP430F2013
microcontroller. Using the integrated 16-bit Sigma-Delta
analog-todigital converter and built-in front-end PGA (SD16_A),
the MSP430F2013 provides all the required elements for interfacing
to the PIR sensor in a small footprint. With integrated analog
and a 16MHz, 16-bit RISC CPU, the MSP430F2013 offer a great
deal of processing performance in a small package and at a low cost.

PIR Infrared motion detector Circuit

Infrared motion detector Circuit
The pyroelectric sensor is made of a crystalline material that
generates a surface electric charge when exposed to heat in the
form of infrared radiation. When the amount of radiation striking
the crystal changes, the amount of charge also changes and
can then be measured with a sensitive FET device built into the
sensor. The sensor elements are sensitive to radiation over a wide
range so a filter window is added to the TO5 package to limit
detectable radiation to the 8 to 14mm range which is most sensitive
to human body radiation.
Typically, the FET source terminal pin 2 connects through a
pulldown resistor of about 100 K to ground and feeds into a two
stage amplifier having signal conditioning circuits. The amplifier
is typically bandwidth limited to below 10Hz to reject high
frequency noise and is followed by a window comparator that
responds to both the positive and negative transitions of the
sensor output signal. A well filtered power source of from 3 to
15 volts should be connected to the FET drain terminal pin 1

Automatic security lights Circuit
Combination PIR sensor and floodlight units are cheap but
rather inflexible if you want to locate the sensor and light in
different places. In my case, I wanted to detect movement
on the driveway and switch on the lights in the carport around
the corner. Yet another job for the ubiquitous PICAXE-08
microcontroller

A standard PIR sensor is used as the movement detector.
The sensor interfaces to the PICAXE (IC1) on input 2 (pin 5).
This pin is pulled low via isolation diode D3 and the normally
open (NO) output of the sensor whenever movement is
detected. It can also be pulled low by transistor Q1, which acts
as a simple inverter for sensors with normally closed (NC) outputs.

Passive Infrared Motion Detector Circuit

This circuit was originally reverse -engineered from a motion
detecting yard light that I ripped apart. That's still probably the
best way to get the parts at a reasonable price, especially the
pyroelectric sensor and the absolutely necessary Fresnel lens.
The signal at pin 7 of the 324 is very interesting and fooling with
the filtering around the first amplification stage can make it even
more so. The LM324 is a wonderful little bug, and you will find
many uses for the window comparator if you look at it the same
way you would learn a new really useful knot. It all works on a
single 5 volt supply. The sensor is only sensitive to changes
across its surface, so don't expect a signal from a static object
even if it is hot. Yard lights are turning up at flea markets and yard
sales as people find themselves heads up every time the cat walks
past. This circuit is in a machine that sees people moving 40 feet
away.
