A new way of detecting human body and moving object, not PIR, not ultrasound and it is definately not expensive and complex image processing with camera, it is using Radar microwave. And it is quite low cost, you should try it!
Using Doppler radar technology, this is a microwave sensor module specifically for detecting moving objects and human body. The module has many advantages such as high sensitivity, long sensing distance, wide sensing angle, high reliability, wide range of operating voltage. Widely used in human body sensing lighting system, anti-theft alarm system.
