Abstract: The present invention relates to a lighting fixture housing a motion sensor. More specifically, the invention relates to a lighting fixture and motion sensor completely integrated with a support post or a pedestal. The lighting fixture houses a motion sensor with greater than 180-degree motion sensing capabilities. In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, the fixture comprises an internal assembly and a protective assembly. The protective assembly comprises an enclosure covering a housing structure. The internal assembly is situated completely within the protective assembly. The one or more lens shields can be used to cover the housing windows through which infrared radiation passes to the internal assembly, and the lens shields may act as a filter that can be used to customize the field of view of the sensor by screening or blocking radiation coming from selected angles. The fixture can be completely integrated with either a post or pedestal in a manner that is aesthetically pleasing.
