Practical PIR for Home Use

Like many of you out there working with home automation projects, I was looking to build a functional PIR sensor for automating some corner turns in my own home. Although light switch PIR sensors would have been optimal, you can’t bend a corner. This project went through a couple iterations and I ran the attempts through many other available tutorials online and couldn’t find one that worked for me. If you want to just get right to the making, skip ahead to step 3, otherwise continue on to step two where I’ll discuss the development.

Supplies:
Soldering Iron
Solder and Flux for electronics
Spare hookup wire
3D Printer
Breadboard
Basic Understanding of Hassio
Basic Arduino Programing skills”
