Simple motion tracking with PIR sensors

Motion tracking with PIR sensor : ARDUINO

[nextpage title=”Description” ]

Description

In This Project  I used 2 PIR infrared sensors with an Arduino to sense motion either on the left or on the right side. The result will trigger an LED to represent each PIR sensor then I also added in a servo to be controlled – so it turns left when triggered by the left sensor and so on.

Component Requirements

2x 220 Ohm resistor (Red, Red, Brown, Gold)
2x 10K Ohm resistor (Brown, Black, Orange, Gold)
2x PIR sensor
1x Servo (has to need no more than 5v supply)
2x LED
Arduino Deumilanove w/ ATMEGA328
Breadboard / Prototyping board
Jumper/ Connector wires
Optional 9V DC power supply or use the USB power for the Arduino
You will also need a soldering iron and solder if you use the same PIR as myself.
Some sort of  temporary adhesive to hold the sensors in place.

We have 1 sensor for left, 1 for right.
 
The left sensor is triggered, the LED for the left comes on and the servo moves until no motion is detected.
The same happens if the right sensor is triggered.
 
If both sensors detect motion then its likely the object may be between the 2 but given the field of detection
its not going to be precice. Enjoy!
