  • MOTION DETECTION
    Publication number: 20250225849
    Abstract: Motion detectors can include a housing defining a first cavity and an aperture extending through the housing. A circuit board can be disposed in the first cavity. An infrared sensor and a light sensor can be mounted on the circuit board. A lens can extend across the aperture. A wall can extend between the lens and the circuit board such that the wall, the lens, and the circuit board define a second cavity at least partially within the first cavity and the second cavity contains the infrared sensor and the light sensor.
    Type: Application
