Radar microwave induction switch wiring method What sensors are in the smart home

With the continuous development of technology, smart home has become an indispensable part of modern life. Among them, the application of sensors in smart homes has brought great convenience to our lives. This article will introduce what sensors are available in smart homes, and analyze the advantages and disadvantages of various sensors in order to provide readers with a better choice.

I. Overview of smart home sensors

A sensor is a detection device that can sense a change in a substance or physical quantity being measured and convert it into an electrical signal or other signal that can be easily processed. In the field of smart home, sensors are widely used in various equipment and systems, such as lighting, air conditioning, security, etc., to improve the intelligence and convenience of the home.

Second, radar microwave induction switch wiring method

Radar microwave sensing switch is a kind of intelligent switch based on microwave sensing technology, which can control the circuit by sensing the movement of human body or object. Its wiring method is relatively simple, generally including a power line, human body induction output and lighting output three ports. The specific steps are as follows:

Connect the power cable to the L and N ports of the radar microwave induction switch, and connect the other end to the power socket.

Connect the human body sensor output port to the circuit that needs to be controlled, such as LED lights.

Connect the lighting output port to the lighting circuit that needs to be controlled, such as LED lights.

The radar microwave induction switch is suitable for a variety of scenes that require human body induction control, such as corridors, bedrooms, etc., which can effectively improve the intelligence and convenience of the home.

Third, other important sensors in smart homes

Temperature sensor

The temperature sensor is a device that detects the change of indoor temperature, and can control the operation of air conditioning equipment through the temperature adjustment circuit to keep the indoor temperature within a comfortable range. In smart homes, temperature sensors are generally connected to smart devices or management platforms through wireless communication technologies such as Bluetooth or WiFi.

Humidity sensor

Humidity sensor is a device that detects changes in indoor humidity. It can control the operation of equipment such as humidifier through humidity regulating circuit to keep indoor humidity within a comfortable range. In smart homes, humidity sensors are generally connected to smart devices or management platforms through wireless communication technologies such as Bluetooth or WiFi.

Air quality sensor

Air quality sensor is a device to detect indoor air quality, which can control the operation of air purifiers and other equipment by detecting the concentration of harmful substances such as PM2.5 and carbon dioxide in the room, so that the indoor air is kept in a healthy state. In smart homes, air quality sensors are generally connected to smart devices or management platforms through wireless communication technologies such as Bluetooth or WiFi.

Light sensor

Light sensor is a device to detect the intensity of indoor light, which can control the operation of lighting equipment through the light regulation circuit, so that the indoor light is kept in a suitable range. In smart homes, light sensors are generally connected to smart devices or management platforms through wireless communication technologies such as Bluetooth or WiFi.
