Occupancy sensor a device that detects the presence of people in a given area and controls devices such as lighting, HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning), or security related to whether it is occupied or vacant. These sensors automatically perform certain functions to prevent energy wastage, increase safety, and increase efficiency. They work based on the use of technologies of passive infrared (PIR) and ultrasonic detection. Occupancy sensors are controlling devices on energy use for many applications such as lighting, HVAC, and security systems. They can be mounted in walls, such as corner post or as wall switches, or on ceilings in order to detect the occupancy of a space. It can be deployed in residential and commercial settings to save energy and enhance automation systems. The sensors, by adjusting parameters automatically based on real time detection of an individual's presence, save operational cost and promote user comfort and security.
