To make this prototype I am using:- Arduino UNO PIR Motion Sensor Jumper wire Breadboard
Arduino code for PIR Motion Sensor prototype
//the time we give the sensor to calibrate (10-60 secs according to the datasheet)int calibrationTime = 30; //the time when the sensor outputs a low impulselong unsigned int lowIn; //the amount of milliseconds the sensor has to be low//before we assume all motion has stoppedlong unsigned int pause = 5000; boolean lockLow = true;boolean takeLowTime; int pirPin = 3; //the digital pin connected to the PIR sensor's outputint ledPin = 13;///////////////////////////////SETUPvoid setup(){ Serial.begin(9600); pinMode(pirPin, INPUT); pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT); digitalWrite(pirPin, LOW); //give the sensor some time to calibrate Serial.print("calibrating sensor "); for(int i = 0; i < calibrationTime; i++){ Serial.print("."); delay(1000); } Serial.println(" done"); Serial.println("SENSOR ACTIVE"); delay(50); }//////////////////////////////LOOPvoid loop(){ if(digitalRead(pirPin) == HIGH){ digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH); //the led visualizes the sensors output pin state if(lockLow){ //makes sure we wait for a transition to LOW before any further output is made: lockLow = false; Serial.println("---"); Serial.print("motion detected at "); Serial.print(millis()/1000); Serial.println(" sec"); delay(50); } takeLowTime = true; } if(digitalRead(pirPin) == LOW){ digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); //the led visualizes the sensors output pin state if(takeLowTime){ lowIn = millis(); //save the time of the transition from high to LOW takeLowTime = false; //make sure this is only done at the start of a LOW phase } //if the sensor is low for more than the given pause, //we assume that no more motion is going to happen if(!lockLow && millis() - lowIn > pause){ //makes sure this block of code is only executed again after //a new motion sequence has been detected lockLow = true; Serial.print("motion ended at "); //output Serial.print((millis() - pause)/1000); Serial.println(" sec"); delay(50); } } } |
