  • Patent number: 8981299
    Abstract: A method of sensing motion in a predetermined area is provided. The method may include using a digital output motion sensor to produce a digital output signal indicative of the presence of motion in the predetermined area. The method may further include transmitting the digital output signal along a signal path independent of analog amplification and filtering. The method may also include using a microprocessor coupled to the signal path to receive the digital output signal and to process the digital output signal.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 29, 2011
    Date of Patent: March 17, 2015
    Assignee: Leviton Manufacturing Company, Inc.
    Inventors: Paul Soccoli, Michael Ostrovsky, Al Lombardi
