How do motion sensors work?

218 views

For example, I have a motion activated light on my garage. Do they work off of thermal imaging, near-infrared, or some other spectrum? I notice that when it’s colder outside it seems more sensitive to my walking by.

They can be trigerred by thermal motion.
If amotion sensor trigger a light close to tlthe sensor and the sensor is at the ceiling, it might happen that the light doesnt turn of again cause the light emit enough thermal dynamic to keep triggering the sensor.
