Grove - PIR Motion Sensor

pir

This sensor allows you to sense motion, usually human movement in its range. Simply connect it to Grove - Base shield and program it, when anyone moves in its detecting range, the sensor will output HIGH on its SIG pin.

警告
The platforms mentioned above as supported is/are an indication of the module's software or theoritical compatibility. We only provide software library or code examples for Arduino platform in most cases. It is not possible to provide software library / demo code for all possible MCU platforms. Hence, users have to write their own software library.

Getting Started

备注
If this is the first time you work with Arduino, we firmly recommend you to see [Getting Started with Arduino](https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/Getting_Started_with_Arduino/) before the start.

Software

  • Copy the code below into Arduino IDE and upload. If you do not know how to upload the code, please check how to upload code.
/*macro definitions of PIR motion sensor pin and LED pin*/
#define PIR_MOTION_SENSOR 2//Use pin 2 to receive the signal from the module


void setup()
{
pinMode(PIR_MOTION_SENSOR, INPUT);
Serial.begin(9600);

}

void loop()
{
if(digitalRead(PIR_MOTION_SENSOR))//if it detects the moving people?
Serial.println("Hi,people is coming");
else
Serial.println("Watching");

delay(200);
}

备注
The detecting distance and holding time can be adjusted by adding two extra potentiometers on board. For the details please refer to the V1.2 Eagle below. The module can also be set as retriggerable or un- retriggerable by changing the jumper hat.

The result should be like:

Play with Codecraft

Hardware

Step 1. Connect a Grove - PIR Motion Sensor to port D2 of a Base Shield.

Step 2. Plug the Base Shield to your Seeeduino/Arduino.

Step 3. Link Seeeduino/Arduino to your PC via an USB cable.

Software

Step 1. Open Codecraft, add Arduino support, and drag a main procedure to working area.

备注
If this is your first time using Codecraft, see also [Guide for Codecraft using Arduino](https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/Guide_for_Codecraft_using_Arduino/).

Step 2. Drag blocks as picture below or open the cdc file which can be downloaded at the end of this page.

Upload the program to your Arduino/Seeeduino.

提示
When the code finishes uploaded, the LED will goes on when people is coming.

备注
For step 3 you are able to connect the PIR motion sensor to **any GPIO Port** but make sure you change the command with the corresponding port number.

Software

  • Step 1. Follow Setting Software to configure the development environment.
  • Step 2. Download the source file by cloning the grove.py library.
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/Seeed-Studio/grove.py

  • Step 3. Excute below commands to run the code.
cd grove.py/grove
python grove_mini_pir_motion_sensor.py 12

Following is the grove_mini_pir_motion_sensor.py code.


import time
from grove.gpio import GPIO


class GroveMiniPIRMotionSensor(GPIO):
def __init__(self, pin):
super(GroveMiniPIRMotionSensor, self).__init__(pin, GPIO.IN)
self._on_detect = None

@property
def on_detect(self):
return self._on_detect

@on_detect.setter
def on_detect(self, callback):
if not callable(callback):
return

if self.on_event is None:
self.on_event = self._handle_event

self._on_detect = callback

def _handle_event(self, pin, value):
if value:
if callable(self._on_detect):
self._on_detect()

Grove = GroveMiniPIRMotionSensor


def main():
import sys

if len(sys.argv) < 2:
print('Usage: {} pin'.format(sys.argv[0]))
sys.exit(1)

pir = GroveMiniPIRMotionSensor(int(sys.argv[1]))

def callback():
print('Motion detected.')

pir.on_detect = callback

while True:
time.sleep(1)


if __name__ == '__main__':
main()

提示
If everything goes well, you will be able to see the following result

pi@raspberrypi:~/grove.py/grove $ python grove_mini_pir_motion_sensor.py 12
Motion detected.

Software

提示
In this wiki we use the path **~/GrovePi/** instead of **/home/pi/Desktop/GrovePi**, you need to make sure Step 2 and Step 3 use the same path.
备注
We firmly suggest you to update the firmware, or for some sensors you may get errors.
备注
 If you are using **Raspberry Pi with Raspberrypi OS >= Bullseye**, you have to use this command line **only with Python3**.
  • Step 3. Git clone the Github repository.
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/DexterInd/GrovePi.git

  • Step 4. Run below commands to use the PIR Motion Sensor to monitor the movement of people.
cd ~/GrovePi/Software/Python
sudo python3 grove_pir_motion_sensor.py

Here is the grove_pir_motion_sensor.py code.

import time
import grovepi

# Connect the Grove PIR Motion Sensor to digital port D8
# SIG,NC,VCC,GND
pir_sensor = 8

grovepi.pinMode(pir_sensor,"INPUT")

while True:
try:
# Sense motion, usually human, within the target range
if grovepi.digitalRead(pir_sensor):
print 'Motion Detected'
else:
print '-'

# if your hold time is less than this, you might not see as many detections
time.sleep(.2)

except IOError:
print "Error"

The result should be like:

pi@raspberrypi:~/GrovePi/Software/Python $ sudo python3 grove_pir_motion_sensor.py

FAQs

Q1: How to make the distance adjustable?

A1: R2: used to adjust the detecting distance(the AMP coefficient, 2MΩ). R6: used to adjust the holding time(the trigger duty, 100KΩ).

The detecting distance can be adjusted from 6 meters to only several centimeters. If the potentiometer is set to one end, the module will be too sensitive to be triggered by the atmosphere even there is no people moving before it. The holding time can also be adjusted by the Delay_time potentiometer, the value is about from 25s to 1s.

If R2 and R6 are soldered, please make sure R13 and R14 are empty.

备注
There is risk that the board may be destroyed. Please think it over before making this modification.
