These are the sensors placed on the body that enable the motion data to be captured. They have velcro on the other side and are worn at the joints.
My local wine store just installed automatic doors. The black rectangular device in the middle at the top of the doors senses movement, then opens the doors.
PS - Pulse sensor can detect a state change of a relay output. It may also be used as a pulse counter. Pulse sensor is over the air configurable and flexible to be used in various applications.

Tree (sensor) dispencer being positioned for placing on bomb lift truck. Ubon RTAFB 1971. Bomb dump personnel transported munions to flight line on trailers. Load crews would then remove from trailers and load onto aircraft. Trees were sensors that detected foot and vehicle movement and would transmit data to overhead aircraft. Data would then be sent to Igloo White for processing and targetting assignment.
The IR Range Sensor is a great way to add range detection to robotic projects that use Cerebot™ boards. The sensor detects reflective objects 10 to 80 cm away.
The sensor connects to the ADC found on all Cerebot boards. The cable maps the output pins to a 3-pin connector. The yellow wire is for the analog output signal. The pin should be connected to the analog-to-digital converter (ADC) on your microcontroller. The red wire is the Vcc power supply to the sensor and is diode-protected against reverse polarization. The black wire should be connected to the ground of the ADC.
The Paparazzi Bots is a series of five autonomous robots each standing at the height of the average human. Comprised of multiple microprocessors, cameras, sensors, code and robotic actuators on a custom-built rolling platform, they move at the speed of a walking human, avoiding walls and obstacles while using sensors to move toward humans. They seek one thing, which is to capture photos of people and to make these images available to the press and the world wide web as a statement of culture's obsession with the “celebrity image” and especially our own images. The flash autonomously goes off, capturing people’s photos and elevating them to “celebrity” in a kind of momentary anointing by the robots. The robots also become celebrities through their association to the “famous people” at the exhibition that are captured by the Paparazzi Bots.
Each autonomous robot can make the decision to take the photos of particular people, while ignoring other humans in the exhibition, based on things such as, whether or not the viewers are smiling or the shape of their smile. When the robots identify a person or group they will automatically adjust their focus and use a series of bright flashes to record that moment.
Surveillance technologies straddle a delicate balance that we have in contemporary culture, where we are all photographed without our knowledge by cell phones, hidden cameras and sometimes “celebritized”. This is a kind of modern baptism with the camera flash and the spectacle of being the focus of the camera becoming a kind of techno anointing.
This work explores ideas surrounding the shifting territories of self and machine and how machines can manipulate the other (us) in a grand co-evolutionary dance of emerging robot-human relations.
The recent emergence of social networks and their ability to connect people through software prompts via the world wide web is a prime example of the co-evolution of humans and their intelligent machines. The fact that the software prompts exploit our social needs for connectivity and social space is so easily exploited in this new critical juncture in our emerging machine human relations.
This camera can track your head and be set to take a photo if you smile mildly, medium-smile or pull-a-muscle smile. When set to smile mode, they do seem to prefer even smiles rather than crooked smiles so here the machine is making determinations about issues of "beauty". I have considered holding a robot beauty contest as an addition to this work.

Motion sensor sink, it makes the building green because it saves water. People cant just leave the sink running, the motion sensor only allows the water to turn on when hands are in front of the sensor.

Here's a good example of some accumulated sensor dust! I've had this camera since 2008 and have used it on and off. I've only recently got back to using it heavily and discovered some spots on many but not all photos. After a bit research I found that it was dust on the sensor. I'm about to have a go at removing it myself with a blower. Haven't used the blower since last autumn when the leaf litter in the driveway was really bad...
The dreaded wet sensor clean. Things got worse before they got better. Followed a method similar to here.
