How to Use a PIR Sensor with Arduino for Motion Detection

Unlock the power of motion detection with Arduino! In this video, we’ll show you how to use a Passive Infrared (PIR) sensor with Arduino to detect motion and light up an LED. Perfect for beginners and enthusiasts, this project lays the foundation for building advanced security systems and automated lighting. By the end of this video, you’ll have a working motion detection system that you can expand into more complex projects like security alarms or automated lighting. Materials Needed: 1. Arduino Board 2. PIR Sensor 3. LED (optional) 4. 220 Ohm Resistor (for the LED) 5. Breadboard and Jumper Wires
