What types of sensors are included in the Proximity/Occupancy Sensors category?
The Proximity/Occupancy Sensors category includes sensors that detect the presence or absence of objects or individuals within a certain range, typically using technologies such as infrared, ultrasonic, or capacitive sensing.
How do proximity sensors work in detecting occupancy?
Proximity sensors work by emitting a signal (such as infrared light or ultrasonic waves) and measuring the reflection or interruption of that signal to determine if an object or person is within the sensor's detection range.
What are some common applications for proximity/occupancy sensors?
Common applications for proximity/occupancy sensors include automatic lighting control in buildings, security systems, smart home devices, and industrial automation for detecting the presence of machinery or personnel.
