Liigutustunnistusjärjestelmadel, commonly referred to as motion detection systems, are electronic devices designed to identify and respond to the presence of movement. These systems play a crucial role in various applications, ranging from security and surveillance to automation and human-computer interaction. The fundamental principle behind most motion detection systems involves sensing changes in the environment that indicate movement.

Several technologies are employed in motion detection. Passive infrared (PIR) sensors are widely used and detect infrared radiation emitted by warm bodies, such as humans and animals. When a moving object passes through the sensor's field of view, it causes a change in the detected infrared pattern, triggering an alarm or action. Microwave sensors emit radio waves and detect changes in the reflected waves caused by movement. Ultrasonic sensors work similarly by emitting sound waves and analyzing the returning echoes.

Applications for motion detection systems are diverse. In security, they are integral to burglar alarms, triggering alerts when an intruder is detected. They are also used in surveillance cameras to initiate recording or focus on specific areas of activity. In home automation, motion sensors can control lighting, adjust thermostats, or activate other smart devices when people enter a room. In the realm of human-computer interaction, motion detection technology enables gesture control for devices like smartphones, game consoles, and interactive displays, allowing users to interact with technology through physical movements. The accuracy and range of these systems vary depending on the sensor technology and system design, making them adaptable to a wide array of needs.
