  • Motion sensor device, method for operating a motion sensor device and lighting system
    Patent number: 11454544
    Abstract: The invention relates to a motion sensor device (10), comprising: a PIR sensor (11) having a plurality of sensor elements (12) arranged adjacent to each other, the active sensor surfaces of which form a detection region (13) of the PIR sensor (11); an optical unit (15), which is designed to image a detection region (16) of the PIR sensor (11), which comprises detection zones (17), on the detection region (13) of the PIR sensor (11); wherein the detection zones (17) in the detection region (16) of the PIR sensor (11) have a spatially periodic arrangement having direction-dependent periodicity. The invention also relates to a lighting system (20) having the motion sensor device and a method (30) for operating the motion sensor device.
