My Food Bank work office has a motion sensor to turn on the lights.
Occasionally after working at my desk for a while the lights go out.
That's when I have to wave my arm to put them back on.

Does anyone have experience with the #Wink #Zwave #MotionSensor ? Mine keeps detecting motion constantly. It's in a small closet like room. I can't figure out how to fix it, I've tried adjusting the sensitivity level, changing the battery and a factory reset but for some reason it's just flipping the fuck out. I can't find anything online and it appears contacting wink will not help me any as they are now some sort of subscription only service. Any help is appreciated.

Can anyone recommend a cheap Home Assistant motion sensor? I want to trigger a smart bulb in the loft.

Acabo de montar una cosa muy molona. #HomeAssistant #MotionSensor #Sensors

He puesto un sensor de movimiento dentro del buzón. Ahora cuando el cartero mete una carta o algo por el buzón, recibo un mensaje por el altavoz de mi oficina y una notificación al móvil.

Bewegungsmelder geht auch... nur Einstellen is nervig. Die Aqara Dinger haben anscheinend PIR und Ultraschall Messung, da fallen 2 Werte raus: Motion und Occupancy. Motion ist ungeeignet, dann schaltet er dauernd aus und man muss Winken. Occupancy schaltet erst nach 10 Minuten wieder ab. Weiß jemand ob man das Konfigurieren kann? #aqara #motionsensor

ESP32-Cam Makes a Dandy Motion Detector

Halloween is right around the corner and just about every Halloween project needs some kind of motion sensor. Historically, we've used IR and ultrasonic sensors but [Makers Mashup] decided to use an ESP32-Cam as a motion sensor in his latest animatronic creation. You can see a video of the device and how it works below.

The project is a skull that follows you around with a few degrees of motion on a stepper motor. There's a 3D-printed enclosure to make the hardware assembly easy. The base software was borrowed from [Eloquent Arduino].

The algorithm is pretty simple. The code grabs a frame of video and divides it into 10 vertical zones, one for each degree of motion for the stepper motor. It creates an array with the values from each of the 10 columns. In that way, the code can detect changes in one zone and move to track that motion.

In addition to the skull, the camera also is seen driving a large inflatable eyeball. While an IR or ultrasonic ranger wouldn't have much range, the eyeball can easily track people on a distance sidewalk as long as they are in frame. The downside? You do need the scene to be lit. To fix that, there's a $30 IR floodlight that will cure that. Who wants a brightly lit Halloween project?

This technique would be a no-brainer if you have to put a camera into your device anyway. Even if you don't need a camera, the price is low enough and you get some interesting benefits like the increased range.

If you want to put an ESP32-Cam on wheels, check this robot out. These devices are even easier to use now that there is a programming board readily available for it.
