Raspberry Pi Motion Detector

Raspberry Pi Motion Detector is a Python script with which you can use Raspberry Pi and a PIR sensor as a motion detector.

Warnings:

• Only Raspberry Pi OS Bullseye is supported.

Requirements:

• Raspberry Pi
• Any three-pin PIR sensor

Setup:

• In the file pir.py edit poweroff_delay and check_delay to change the screen auto-off time and the delay between sensor polling, as well as pir_pin to the one you use for the sensor (BOARD type numbering)

gpio.setmode(gpio.BOARD)
poweroff_delay = 10
check_delay = 0.85
pir_pin = 11

• Download the script:

git clone https://github.com/ByloTonix/PIR-Sensor/
cd PIR-Sensor/

Usage:

• After completing the configuration, go to the directory with the script and run it:

cd ~/PIR-Sensor
sudo python3 pir.py
