How does a motion detector work?

A motion detector, or an occupancy sensor, is a device that uses a sensor to detect the movement of people in an area.

With a wireless motion detector, you can detect when someone moves around in your home and get notified by a motion detector alarm. Through an internet-connected hub, the wireless motion sensor, for instance, a Zigbee motion sensor, notifies you on your smartphone.

The motion detector also allows you to set up automations triggered by movement, such as turning on smart lights when someone enters a room.

A battery-operated motion detector is easy to install. You simply need to mount them on the wall or ceiling of your home using double-sided tape or screws.
