This document provides instructions for connecting a PIR motion sensor to a Raspberry Pi to detect movement. The PIR sensor's power, ground, and output pins need to be connected to the Raspberry Pi's 5V, ground, and GPIO 4 pins respectively using female-to-female jumper wires. Then a Python program can be written and run to have the sensor capture movement and print it, with the program stopped using ctrl+c and quit().

2. Here, I am going to demonstrate a small raspberry project which determines the movement of
anyone.

3. What you need?

8. Connect the PIR Sensor
module to the Raspberry Pi

9. 3 pins in the PIR motion sensor
1. The black color indicates the Ground (GND) pin
2. The yellow color indicates the Digital OUT pin
3. The red color indicates the 3.5 DC voltage pin
These pins will be connected to the Raspberry
through the female to female connectors.

11. Raspberry pi 3 & Sensor

12. There are 3 female to female jumper wires.
• Red – One end connected to sensor(power pin) and other end to Raspberry (5V pwr)
• Yellow – One end connected to sensor(high/low output pin) and other end to Raspberry (GPIO 4)
• Black – One end connected to sensor(ground pin) and other end to Raspberry (ground pin)

13. Write code

14. Login to raspberry, open the Python 3 editor.

15. Create new file

16. Write the program

17. Run program

18. Sensor capturing the movement and printing

19. Stop program – ctrl+c & quit()
