Microbit: Someone comes & sense and blink

Overview
In this project you will learn how to control the LED – 3W LED Module (ON/OFF) while PIR Motion Sensor detects motion/activity, our aim is to learn the motion sensor, and how we can utilize it.

You may see such a lens in a film or television. When someone wants to attack a target, but is not close to the target, they were directly found and the alarm sounded. When some special forces go to the target, they will be covered with moist mud, so that they will not be discovered by the other party. Why?

Originally, the human body will emit a certain wavelength of infrared rays of about 10um. The relevant sensors are installed near the targets that are being attacked to sense the infrared rays emitted by the human body and then alarm them. After the mud is applied, the sensors can not sense the infrared rays emitted by the human body.

Component Required

• Micro:bit main board*1
• Keyestudio Micro bit Sensor V2 Shield*1
• USB Cable*1
• Keyestudio PIR Motion Sensor*1
• Keyestudio 3W LED Module*1
• Dupont jumper wire*3

Component Introduction
Keyestudio 3W LED Module:
This LED module is of high brightness because its lamp beads are 3w. You can apply this module to Arduino or other projects, ideal for Robot or search and rescue application.

For example, intelligent robots can use this module for illumination purposes.
Please note that the LED light can’t be exposed directly to human eyes for safety concerns.

Connect It Up

Insert the micro:bit into keyestudio micro:bit sensor V2 shield. Then connect PIR Motion Sensor to micro:bit sensor shield, connect the S pin0 to S pin header, + pin to V1 header, – pin to the ground header. And then connect 3W LED module to micro:bit sensor shield, connect the S pin1 to S pin header, + pin to V1 header, – pin to the ground header.
