working LED

light sensor

This sensor is an active motion detector, it emits high-frequency 

electro-magnetic waves, 5.8GHz and receives their echo.  

The sensor detects the change in echo from even the slightest 

movement in the light detection zone. 
A microprocessor then triggers the “switch light ON” command. 

Detection is possible through doors, panes of glass or thin walls 

in most applications.
More reliable at distance than using IR or optical sensors, as 

there are no gaps in the detection zone.

Model: LHT0182 Microwave Sensor
