Five different types of Motion Sensors and Their Working

In the world of automatic and semi-automatic machines and appliances, the importance of sensors has increased many folds. Prevalence of sensors can be gauzed by the fact that one or more than one sensors are powering almost all the automatic and semi-automatic appliances like Television, refrigerator, Washing machine, alarm bell, security system, lighting system, Audio system.  Starrbot provide to our consumers all appliances in PIR Motion Sensor manufacturer in Pune.

Sensors have made our life more safe and easy. Without much to do, we can have the benefits of many advanced systems. That sensors work on various principles, and their working is somehow different from each other.

Five most important types of motion sensors and their working gives as below:-

Passive Infrared (PIR) Sensor: –  This is a widely used sensor which works on thin Pyroelectric film material. This material responds to IR radiation by emitting electricity. This sensor is mainly used in alarming and security systems. It is very much economical and does not consume much energy. Ready to use and easy to install is the main USP of this sensor. You can get the entire product from our PIR sensor dealer in Pune.

Combined sensors: – This is the most advanced sensor. Here different types of sensors are used to decide the motion status of an object. Radio waves, microwaves and ultrasound waves are emitted from this combined sensor. It is mainly used in highly secure zones like any big and important government houses, defense installations etc.

Ultrasonic Sensor: – In the market of sensors, this is the most expensive. It comes in two types like active ultrasonic sensor and passing ultrasonic sensor. Here active one is more accurate and only give an alarm when it is quite clear that some individual is at the spot without any permission. It rarely gives a false alarm. Passive ultrasonic sensors are based on paying attention to some particular sounds like metal, glass etc. So in the case of any domestic animals like cats, dogs, mice is the reason for that sound, it will raise a false alarm.

Microwave sensor: – This is the same type of sensor which is used in microwaves to make your food heated. The same types of principals, when applied in motion devices, it works fine and gives quite accurate results. The working of these sensors involves generating microwave pulses and then calculating and measuring the reflection coming out after falling from an object.

It is very much sensitive and also measures the movement. So in the case of any burglary attempt, it will raise the alarm by knowing that one same object is moving here and there and coming again and again into the range of rays. It is expensive and also consumes lots of energy.

Tomographic Sensor: – One of the most expensive and most accurate motion sensors, it works on the principle of radio waves. Yes, the same radio wave which helps in running radio in our homes. You can buy the entire sensors related product from our motion sensor supplier in Pune. It emits radio waves, and when it returns from bouncing off the objects, sensors read it and decide the motion status. It covers a large area, and that is the reason for its installation is mainly commercial spaces like malls, warehouses, big shops, etc.
